Serving size: 12
Calories per serving: 30

Ingredients:
1/2 cup port wine or 1/2 cup beef broth plus 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 to 5 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauces
1 beef tenderloin roast (3 pounds)
1 bay leaf

Directions:
For marinade, whisk together first 7 ingredients. Place roast, bay leaf and 3/4 cup marinade into a large bowl; turn to coat. Cover; refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Reserve remaining marinade for basting; cover and refrigerate.

Preheat oven to 425°. Place tenderloin on a rack in a roasting pan; discard bay leaf and marinade. Roast until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), 40-50 minutes, basting occasionally with reserved marinade during the last 15 minutes.

Remove roast from oven; tent with foil. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
