Sesame Ginger Beef Tenderloin

Preparation & Cooking Time:
Serves:

Ingredients

3/4 cup Knorr Sesame Ginger marinade

1 tbsp finely minced fresh ginger

1 grated zest of an orange, plus juice 1

1/2 tsp dried chili flakes or asian chili sauce (optional)

2 fresh oranges, quartered

1 large mango, peeled and cut in 6th's

1 1/2 lb whole piece of beef tenderloin

1 red onion, peeled and quartered length-wise


Method

In a shallow dish, whisk marinade, ginger, zest, juice and chili; reserve 1/4 cup.

Add tenderloin, orange quarters, onion, and mango pieces. Marinate 1 hour.

Grill tenderloin over medium heat, or about 4 inches from heat source. Turning several times and basting with reserved marinade mixture, cook approximately 20 - 25 minutes.

Add onion, oranges and mango pieces to the grill. Cook about 5 - 10 minutes, turning occasionally.

Remove beef, fruit and onion to a platter and tent with foil for 5 - 10 minutes. This will produce a medium rare tenderloin.

Serving Suggestion: Slice beef and serve with grilled mango and onion, accompanied by basmati rice. Squeeze the juice from the grilled oranges over top. Note: Any tender cut of beef (grilling steaks) can be substituted for the tenderloin in this recipe. Adjust cooking times accordingly.
