Instructions
Preheat oven to 300F.
Toss all ingredients for Tomato Confit together on a baking sheet. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, or until cooked through and slightly golden in color.
Preheat grill or broiler.
Lightly season beef tenderloin filets with salt and pepper. Grill tenderloin fillets for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, or to desired doneness.
In a large sauté pan over medium heat, sauté shallots in olive oil. Add kale leaves, salt and pepper. Add water to steam and soften vegetables. Finish with vinegar.
In a large saucepan, sauté onion in butter over medium heat until translucent. Add corn and sauté briefly, about 30 seconds. Add milk and bring to a boil. Using a wire whip, lightly whisk in polenta, salt, pepper and sugar. Cook until thickened, about 3 minutes. Add cheese, sage and chives and stir until cheese is melted.
Serve each beef tenderloin topped with 1/3 cup Tomato Confit, 1/3 cup Sautéed Kale and 1/3 cup Sage Polenta.
