Grilled Tenderloin with Creamy Dill Sauce 🍖🌿
Savor the flavors of summer with this easy grilled tenderloin paired with a zesty creamy dill sauce! Perfect for a backyard BBQ or a simple weeknight dinner.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1.5 pounds tenderloin, trimmed
1 lemon, juiced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
Instructions:
1. Prep the Tenderloin: Start by brushing the tenderloin generously with olive oil. Then, season all sides with salt and pepper for enhanced flavor.
2. Heat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Ensure it's hot enough to give your meat a good sear.
3. Grill the Tenderloin: Place the seasoned tenderloin onto the grill. Cook each side for 4-6 minutes or until it reaches your preferred doneness (aim for an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare).
4. Prepare the Dill Sauce: While the tenderloin is grilling, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, freshly chopped dill, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
5. Slice and Serve: Once the tenderloin is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, slice it into medallions and serve alongside the creamy dill sauce for dipping.
