Ingredients:
- 1 pound (450g) high-quality beef tenderloin, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely minced
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained and chopped
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Baguette or rustic bread, sliced
- 1 garlic clove, peeled
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Instructions:
- Prepare the Beef Tartare:
- In a bowl, combine the finely chopped beef tenderloin, minced red onion, capers, Dijon mustard, fresh parsley, Worcestershire sauce, and olive oil.
- Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

- Grill the bread slices for 1-2 minutes per side or until they are golden and have grill marks. Remove from heat.
- Rub with Garlic:
- While the bread is still warm, rub one side of each slice with a peeled garlic clove. This will infuse the bread with a subtle garlic flavor.

- Garnish:
- Optionally, garnish the bruschetta with fresh basil leaves for a burst of color and added freshness.
