Tenderloin With Grilled Corn Relish
From Better Homes and Gardens [1]
Ingredients
- 3 ears corn, husks and silks removed
4 center-cut beef tenderloin steaks, cut 2 inches thick (about 2 lb. total)
4 slices bacon
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion
3/4 cup half-and-half or light cream
2 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh dill
1 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh tarragon
Directions
- Lightly coat corn and steaks with extra virgin olive oil. Season steaks with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Let steaks stand at room temperature while grilling corn.
- For charcoal grill, place corn on rack over medium-hot coals. Cover; grill 10 minutes or until golden, turning occasionally. For gas grill, preheat grill to medium-high. Grill as above. Set corn aside.
- With grilling tongs, carefully push coals to one side of grill and, if necessary, add more coals for medium-hot heat.
- Place steaks on rack directly over coals. Cover and lightly sear on both sides, 5 to 6 minutes. Move to unheated side of grill. Cover and grill 13 to 15 minutes more for medium rare (145 degrees F); remove. Cover with foil; set aside.
- For corn relish, in skillet over medium coals, cook bacon. Drain on paper towels; reserve drippings in skillet.
- Cut kernels from cob. Cook onion in drippings over medium coals until tender, 3 minutes, stirring often.
- Add corn and half-and-half. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer 3 minutes or until thickened. Add crumbled bacon and herbs; spoon over steaks.
Serves 4.
