Peanut crusted beef tenderloin stuffed with spinach, chorizo, mozarella cheese and spicy gorgonzola blue cheese butter. This recipe is inspired by a from my friend Liz Berg of Thatskinnychickcanbake.com recipe, Gorgonzola Mushrooms Stuffed Beef Tenderloin Recipe. Instead using crumbled gorgonzola cheese, i add my homemade spicy gorgonzola butter recipe with basil, chili and caramelized shallots for this recipe. Spinach stuffed tenderloin with peanut and mustard crust is looks so fancy and elegant dish, even sounds quite an effort but actually you can easily apply this recipe in your very own kichen. Try this spinach, cheese and chorizo stuffed roasted whole beef tenderloin with crusted peanut layer to impressed your relatives in a special occations gathering party or even on romantic candle light dinner with your girlfriend, just make sure that she isn’t some sort of tree-hugging vegan chicks.
Peanut crusted tenderloin is the first seducing layer on this dish. The peanut is lighly toasted and roughly chopped, covering all over the whole beef tenderloin. The peanut crusted spinach stuffed beef tenerloin then popped in into the oven and roasted until got a crusted and nice golden brown color. You may combine or adjust the peanut with your favourite nuts for this recipe, instead peanut, you can use walnut, almond, cashew, Macadamian or Brazilian nuts, or any available nuts nearby your place. Just like my Pistachio Nuts Crusted Lamb Rack with Feta Cheese and Spinach Stuffing Recipe, the crusted nuts layer need some bonding agent to made it stick better to covering the beef tenderloin surface. I’m using a mixture of honey mustard and egg yolk as a glue for the peanut crust layer.
Now were talking about the stuffing for the whole beef tenderloin, just look at the photograph and you can tell me all the goodness loaded on the butterflied tenderloin. The stuffing for the whole tenderloin is sauteed spinach with garlic and basil, sliced genuin Spanish chorizo, thick sliced mozarella cheese and sliced gorgonzola blue cheese butter. I spread the ttuffing evenly, but not covering about 1 inch from the edge of the flatened beef tenderloin. I did this to k kept the stuffing inside the denderloin and not burst out when you roast in in the over. DO NOT OVERFILLED the beef tenderloin, too much filling might made the stuffed tenderloin explode out from the tenderloin, eventhough it won’t ruined the taste but it’s won’t be plateable.
You can adjust the stuffing for the tenderloin as your licking preference, other delicious veggies stuffing for beef tenderloin could be caramelized onion or cabbage, sauteed kale or swiss chard etc. Plenty of cheese selection instead of mozarella may loaded in to stuffed the beef tenderloin, soft cheese is preferred becauce it’s easier to melt; goat cheese, feta cheese, camembert, brie etc. Another savoury kick beside chorizo is bacon, anchovies or other dry cured meat or sausage. A few slice of butter added to kept the beef tenderloin stuffing moist and flavoursome.
Tenderloin is tenderloin and it’s literrary because tenderloin not much taking effort for the cow’s movement. Beef tenderloin cut is lean and least affected by the fat marbling grading, you should check the cross section of grade 3 marbling point tenderloin to grrade 12 marbling point wagyu tenderloin, you’ll find not much different on the ammunt of of white fat distributes between the muscles on it. This makes the cheap tenderloin is just as tender as the insanely pricey wagyu tenderloin. The difference between the pricey beef tenderloin such as US Black Angus, Wagyu, Kobe etc from the cheap ones is on the flavour, the pricey beef might be take from a cattle that feed with best selection of whole grain, corn, nuts, fresh grass and stuffs, this made the the meat is got more complex flavour. For any stuffed beef tenderloin recipe, i suggest you choose the regular tenderloin. Regular beef tenderloin is preferred since we add another flavour into it, while the pricey gourmet tenderloin is already flavoursome, lighly seasoned and seared in a sizzling hot skillet is just perfect to prepare it.
I like my oven roasted whole beef tenderloin with spinach, cheese and chorizo stuffing served medium done. Medium done whole beef tenderloin means the internal temperature when you put the meat temperature gauge in the middle of the thickest part must reach at least 145-155F or about 63-68°C. This temperature enought to melt the blue cheese butter stuffing and also soften the mozarella cheese and the internal meat slighly pink and lighly firm. Your roasted tenderloin would be a fest with the crunchy peanut crust, gooey melted mozarella cheese with a burst of melted spicy gorgonzola cheese butter flavour and it’s all rolled in a tender and juicy beef tenderloin. Just look into the photograph of sagital section of my spinach and cheese stuffed beef tenderloin above, it’s all perfect if you ignored my lack of knive skills.
My sister is pregnant and i insist that she never ever eaten any soft of medium rare or even medium done meat, including this seducing roasted whole tenderloin with peanut crust and cheesy spinach stuffing. So please, to ya’ll mommy to be, stop bitching about pleasing your taste buds, i’m pretty sure you didn’t want to risk your baby with parasites or food poisoning from unsufficient cooked meat either. I even cooked my Balinese Style Grilled Baby Back Ribs Recipe until well done for her. So then to served this tenderloin well done for my sister, i put the leftover toasted peanut in the bottom of the pan, then put the sliced spinach stuffed tenderloin on top of it and put extra mozarella cheese to cover it, popped it into the oven and broiled until the cheese melted and slighly charred. I eat a tiny bite of the well done tenderloin and it’s incredibly quite moist and tender, i guess the stuffing really paid an effort on it.
The roasted whole beef tenderloin with spinach, cheese and chorizo stuffing served with roasted jalapeno pepper sauce. The basic recipe is the same with my previously Roasted Bell Pepper Sauce , i just replace the same amount of sweet bell pepper with deseeded jalapeno pepper. You can enjoy it with any carbs, Mashed Potato, Mashed Sweet Potato, Truffle Oil and Dill Mashed Potato, Saffron Infused Mashed Potato, or even Deep Fried Spicy Cassava, but i prefer mine with red rice salad.

Lovely, Dedy. Beef and smashed peanut all around it, that is something new, never heard of that. Chorizo? I like eating it but a lot of the time chorizo is very processed and that’s not good for you. But anyone who cooks me this dish will certainly impress me since I like my meat 😀
This looks so exotic and delicious – wonderful flavour combinations.
