| 1. Combine the butter and the flour together. | 2. Bring the beef broth and madiera to a boil. | 3. Whisk in the butter and flour mixture until completely dissolved. | 4. Simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, until the liquid is thickened and reduced by half. | 5. While the sauce is simmering, preheat the oven to 350*F. | 6. Spray the rack of a roasting pan with nonstick spray and place in the pan. | 7. Slice the tenderloin into 6 portions that are approximately 3 inched in diameter and 1 1/2 inches thick. | 8. Tie butcher's twine around the beef medallions so they maintain their shape while cooking if desired. | 9. Combine the breadcrumbs, blue cheese, parsley, chives and pepper to form a paste. | 10. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over high heat. | 11. Sear the medallions until just browned, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. | 12. Arrange the medallions in a roasting pan. | 13. Coat the top side of each medallion with 3 TBs of the blue cheese and herb crust. | 14. Roast until the crust is golden brown and the meat is cooked as desired, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, depending on the size of the medallions. | 15. If butchers twine was used, be sure to remove it. | 16. Serve the medallions on a pool of the warm madiera sauce. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
