Generally speaking, gaining muscle and losing fat are at odds with one another and are best pursued separately rather than at the same time. That being said, beginners can and often do accomplish both at once.
Use a basic routine to build mass, and monitor calories and fat loss.
Mass: squats, dl, pull ups, rows, oh press, curls, tri extensions, weighted abs, calves. These would be a good basis, but you don't necessarily have to do every one in each workout. 3x8 and increase your weights as often as you can while maintaining your form.
Fat loss: get some calipers and measure your body fat. Keep track of your calories and adjust if you aren't losing fat.
