Southwest Beef Tenderloin With Jalapeno Hollandaise Sauce

"This delicious recipe is in memory of one of my most favorite southwestern restaurants that recently burned down who served something similar. The spicy jalapeno perfectly compliments the tangy, creamy hollandaise as it smothers the juicy beef. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!"

  • Prepare House Spice and set aside.

Prepare a double boiler by placing a stainless steel bowl over a pot of lightly simmering water. Do not let bottom of the bowl touch the water.

  • Whisk in hot pepper sauce. Stir in cooled shallot/jalapeno pepper mixture and parsley. Season with salt and fresh ground black pepper. Reserve keeping slightly warm until use.
  • Dust tenderloin filets lightly with House Spice. Place on preheated grill and cook to desired temperature (med. rare is 130 degrees, then let it rest off the grill which will raise the temp another 5-10 degrees). Transfer grilled tenderloin fillets to warm serving plates and top with Jalapeno Hollandaise Sauce.
