Tenderloin and Heirloom Tomato Canapés

Few cuts of beef are as succulent as beef tenderloin, which, when thinly sliced, makes an elegant canapé topping. Here, in the spirit of summer, the slices are topped with chopped heirloom tomatoes and fresh basil. Although you can serve these bite-size hors d’oeuvres warm, they are best at room temperature.
