Beef Wasabi with Hoisin Green Salad & Five-Spice Sweet Potato

This Asian-inspired recipe blends together so well it could be found on the menu of the finest restaurant you've ever been to. We loved making this one. The tenderloin beef and wasabi sauce elegantly match the citrusy sweet potato and hoisin salad, the result is true perfection especially if you're a beef lover.
