Juicy sous vide picanha finished with a golden sear and topped with creamy horseradish Dijon sauce. Perfect for steak night or special occasions.
2 6-ounce tenderloins (filet mignon or picanha steaks)
2 teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon avocado oil
Creamy Horseradish Sauce
2 tablespoons horseradish
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ cup sour cream
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Chives for garnish
1. Season the tenderloins on both sides with salt and pepper.
2. Place in a vacuum seal bag or use the water displacement method.
3. Preheat a water bath to 125°F. Add the sealed beef and cook for 3 hours.
4. Remove the steaks and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels.
5. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat until smoking hot.
6. Add avocado oil and sear the beef 45–60 seconds per side until a golden crust forms.
7. Remove from heat and rest 2–3 minutes before slicing.
8. For the sauce, mix all creamy horseradish ingredients in a bowl until smooth.
9. Garnish steaks with chives and serve with the sauce.
Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.
Make sure steaks are dry before searing to avoid steaming.
Use mayonnaise to brush steaks before searing for extra browning if desired.
