"Very simple preparation. Excellent served with a horseradish sauce. This recipe will work with larger tenderloins as well."

FANTASTIC METHOD FOR COOKING THIS TYPE OF MEAT! I only have an oven to cook in but LOVE this type of meat! I brined the meat for about 2 hours and used the exact cooking method described. I ended up cooking it longer to make it more well done but it turned out as tender and perfect as if I bought it in an expensive restaurant. I think the olive oil was a huge key. Nevertheless, I will always make tenerloin this way now. Many many thanks!

It was good. I followed the recipe, but I did have to cook it for longer than stated. That could be due to oven differences. I will be doing it again.
