Glazed beef tournedos bring upscale restaurant vibes to your table any night of the week. This tender grilled steak brushed with a tangy sauce begs for simple sides like roasted potatoes and your favorite green vegetables.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons steak sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
4 beef tenderloin steaks (6 ounces each)

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the steak sauce, ketchup, marmalade, lemon juice, onion and garlic. Set aside 1/4 cup for serving.
Lightly oil the grill rack. Grill steaks, uncovered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), basting frequently with remaining sauce.
Just before serving, brush steaks with reserved sauce.

I found this wonderful, quick recipe in a book years ago. It’s been a favorite for special occasions ever since! I like to serve it with twice-baked potatoes and a spinach salad. —Janet Singleton, Bellevue, Ohio
