Steak and Sauce Ingredients
- 400ml Vuco Coconut Milk Premium
- 2 Tbsp Vuco Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
- 2 portions (200g each) Fresh Beef Tenderloin
- 3 ripe Tomatoes
- 1 medium Onion
- 1 Tbsp Minced Fresh Ginger
- 2 Tbsp Minced Garlic
- 2 Jalapeños (seeds removed and minced)
- Cumin powder, to taste
- Turmeric powder, to taste
- 1 Tbsp Chili powder
- 3 sprigs Fresh Cilantro (chopped)
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- A little Parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Gently pat the beef tenderloin dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. Season generously on all sides with salt and black pepper. Lightly rub the seasonings into the meat to ensure even distribution for maximum flavor.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine cumin powder, turmeric powder, and chili powder. Add 1 Tbsp of Vuco Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil and mix well to create a paste. Coat the beef tenderloin evenly with this spice mixture, ensuring it’s well-covered. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes (or longer for deeper flavor) to allow the spices to penetrate the meat.
Step 3
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat until thoroughly hot. Add the remaining 1 Tbsp of Vuco Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil to the hot skillet. Carefully place the marinated beef tenderloin in the pan. Sear for approximately 4 minutes per side, for a total of 8 minutes, until a beautiful golden-brown crust forms. Aim for a juicy interior by adjusting the cooking time according to your desired level of doneness.
Step 4
While the steak is searing, prepare the sauce ingredients. Finely mince the jalapeños, garlic, ginger, and onion. Transfer these minced ingredients to the same skillet (after removing the steak, or use a clean one) and add about 1 tsp of Vuco Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil. Sauté over medium-low heat until fragrant, being careful not to burn them. Cook gently until the vegetables soften and release their aromas.
Step 5
Finely dice the tomatoes and add them to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the tomatoes to soften and meld with the other ingredients.
Step 6
Pour the 400ml of Vuco Coconut Milk Premium into the skillet with the cooked vegetables. Stir continuously with a spatula over medium-low heat as the sauce simmers and thickens. Allow it to reduce slightly to concentrate the flavors, creating a rich and creamy coconut sauce.
Step 7
Season the simmering sauce with a pinch of black pepper and salt to taste. At this stage, you can add a tiny amount of sugar or honey if you prefer a subtle sweetness to balance the flavors. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Step 8
Arrange the perfectly cooked beef tenderloin steak on a serving plate. Generously spoon the rich coconut sauce over the steak. Garnish with the freshly chopped cilantro and parsley for a final touch of freshness and vibrant color. Your delicious Vuco Coconut Tenderloin Steak is ready to be enjoyed immediately!
