Ingredients
Instructions
-
Prepare the beefWrap the beef tenderloin tightly in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 1-2 hours until firm but not completely frozen. This will make it easier to slice thinly.
-
Slice the beefRemove the beef from the freezer and unwrap. Using a very sharp knife, slice the beef as thinly as possible across the grain. Place the slices between sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper and gently pound with a meat mallet until paper-thin.
-
Arrange the carpaccioArrange the beef slices on chilled plates, slightly overlapping them to create a thin layer covering most of the plate. Return plates to refrigerator to keep cold while preparing the dressing.
-
Prepare the dressingIn a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, truffle oil (if using), lemon juice, salt, pepper, minced shallot, and Dijon mustard (if using) until well combined.
-
Dress and garnishJust before serving, drizzle the dressing evenly over the beef. Scatter arugula leaves, shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano, and capers over the top. Serve immediately while cold.
