{{ :recipes:beef_tenderloin_with_cayenne_sauce.jpg?direct&200|}} ====== Beef Tenderloin w/Cayenne Sauce ====== /* Description */ From [[http://www.texasmonthly.com/food/rule-britannia/|Texas Monthly - Rule Britannia]] Jenni Messina, the Anglo-Indian owner of Dallas' Jennivine's Restaurant and Culinary Center, has made her business a success by recharging her native English cookery with Southwestern flavors and produce. In this buffet for twelve, Messina's [[Jennivines warm English salad | warm English salad]] is dressed with a British standby -- Stilton cheese -- but bits of juicy jicama and sorrel add Tex-Mex animation. At the center of her holiday menu is roast tenderloin of beef, smothered with a fresh-cayenne-pepper sauce. Following this are deep-dish tributes to autumn: braised red cabbage and sugar snap peas. Dessert is a sumptuous [[bourbon-zapped bread pudding | bread pudding]], studded with raisins and drizzled with spoonfuls of bourbon-zapped crème anglaise.
