    ½ c. chopped shallots

    Things To Grab

    • Roasting pan with rack
    • Large skillet
    • Carving board
    • Aluminum foil

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Season beef roast with 1 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. pepper. Place roast on rack in shallow roasting pan. Roast, uncovered, for 35 to 45 minutes for medium-rare (135 degrees) or 45 to 50 minutes for medium-well (150 degrees) doneness.

    2. Meanwhile, melt 2 Tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallots; cook 2 minutes or until golden brown, stirring frequently. Add mushrooms and garlic; cook 3 to 4 minutes or until mushrooms are tender. Stir in wine; simmer for 7 minutes. Add broth; bring to a boil. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in remaining 2 Tbsp. butter until melted. Stir in tarragon leaves and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

    3. Remove roast from oven when temperature reaches desired doneness. Transfer roast to carving board; tent loosely with foil. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with sauce.
