Step 1
Make a few small slits, about 2 inches deep, along the side of the tenderloin. Tuck sage leaves and pieces of garlic into those slits for extra flavor. Then, wrap some fresh thyme sprigs around the meat. Pop it in the fridge and let it marinate for anywhere between 4 to 12 hours so it soaks up all those herbs.
Step 2
When you’re ready to cook, heat up your grill to medium and give the grates a light oiling to prevent sticking. Slice the tenderloin in half, then season both pieces generously with salt and pepper. Grill the fillets for about 4 to 6 minutes on each side, or until they’re cooked to your liking. The outside should be nicely seared while the inside stays tender and juicy.
How To Enjoy This Dish
Serve with roasted vegetables or a fresh green salad to complement the herbaceous flavors. A side of garlic mashed potatoes or crusty bread pairs well to soak up any extra marinade or juices.
Storage Advice
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to avoid drying out the meat, either in a low oven or covered in a microwave.
