I like to use an oven-proof skillet when searing the tenderloin. This way all the flavorful meat juices stay in the pan while the meat finishes, and it makes for easy clean-up! —Sharon Tipton, Winter Garden, Florida

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 beef tenderloin roast (2 pounds)
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup prepared horseradish
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon paprika
18 slices pumpernickel bread, halved
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 bunch watercress

Directions

Rub oil over tenderloin; sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. In a large skillet, brown beef on all sides. Place roast on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 25-35 minutes or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing thinly.
In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, horseradish, lemon juice, paprika and remaining salt. Chill until serving.
Brush both sides of bread with butter; place on baking sheets. Bake at 425° for 4-6 minutes or until toasted, turning once.
Spread with sauce; top with beef. Garnish with watercress sprigs.
