Beef Tenderloin and Gouda Sandwich with Balsamic Jus
Ingredients
For the Beef Tenderloin:
1 pound beef tenderloin, trimmed and sliced into thin pieces
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 ciabatta or French bread rolls, sliced and toasted
8 slices Gouda cheese
For the Balsamic Jus:
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup beef or chicken broth
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional Toppings:
Sautéed mushrooms
Caramelized onions
Arugula or mixed greens
Instructions
Season the beef tenderloin slices with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat then sear the beef slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they're cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add balsamic vinegar and let it simmer over medium heat until it's reduced by half.
Add the broth, honey, and Dijon mustard. Stir well and continue simmering for another 3-4 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
Season the balsamic jus with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
Lay out the toasted rolls and place a slice of Gouda cheese on the bottom half of each roll.
Layer the cooked beef tenderloin slices on top of the cheese.
If using, add sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, and arugula or mixed greens.
Drizzle a spoonful of the balsamic jus over the beef and toppings and place the top halves of the rolls on each sandwich.
Serve the Beef Tenderloin and Gouda Sandwiches with extra balsamic jus on the side for dipping.
