Lomo al Malbec
An Argentinian dinner built around beef tenderloin and malbec wine — on the table in 45 minutes. Each serving lands at 590 calories with 48g of protein, so it eats like a much heavier meal. Leftovers keep well, so it doubles as next-day lunch without any extra work.

Ingredients
- 2 lb Beef tenderloin
- 1 cup Malbec wine
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 3 tbsp Butter
- 1 Shallot
- 2 sprigs Rosemary
Steps
- Sear the whole tenderloin on all sides in a hot oven-proof pan until deeply browned, then roast at 425°F to 130°F internal.
- Rest the meat and build the sauce in the same pan: soften the shallot, deglaze with malbec, and reduce by half.
- Add the broth and rosemary, reduce to a syrupy glaze, and mount with cold butter off the heat.
- Slice the lomo thick, nap with the malbec sauce, and pour the same wine at the table — Mendoza would insist.
- Let the sauce rest 5 minutes off the heat; it thickens slightly and clings to the meat better.
