Prep the Beef

Season a 1.5-pound beef tenderloin with salt and pepper. Heat a pan with oil over high heat and sear the beef on all sides for 2 minutes each. Remove and let it cool.

Wrap with Deliciousness

Spread Dijon mustard over the seared beef. Then, lay out 6 slices of prosciutto on a sheet of puff pastry. Place the beef on top and roll it up tightly in the prosciutto and puff pastry. Seal the edges by pressing them together.

Eggcellent Finish

In a small bowl, beat an egg and brush it over the puff pastry to give it a beautiful golden color. Carefully transfer the wrapped beef onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake it to Perfection

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the Beef Wellington for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the beef reaches your desired level of doneness. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Slice and Serve

Cut the Beef Wellington into thick slices and serve it with a side of flavorful sauce, such as red wine reduction or mushroom cream sauce. Enjoy the rich, tender goodness!
