Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200 C.
2. Finely chop the pistachios and the drained olives, then mix them in a small bowl with the breadcrumbs.
3. Heat a non-stick pan over high heat and sear the beef fillet for 2 minutes per side to lock in the juices.
4. Place the seared fillet on a baking tray and press the pistachio and olive mixture onto the top of the meat.
5. Drizzle with the olive oil to help the crust brown.
6. Transfer to the oven and bake for 5-8 minutes depending on your preferred level of doneness.
7. Allow the meat to rest for 3 minutes before serving.

Tips

• Press the crust firmly onto the meat while it is still warm so it sticks better.
• Choose unsalted pistachios to better control the sodium levels of the dish.
