Ingredients
Scale
Here’s what you’ll need to create this delicious, comforting dish:
- 1 pound beef tenderloin, cut into 1-inch medallions
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
If you’re out of fresh parsley, don’t sweat it. You can sprinkle some dried parsley or skip it altogether. The same goes for the beef tenderloin; sirloin or ribeye cuts work wonderfully as well.
Instructions
Let’s get cooking! Follow these steps to create your own masterpiece:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
- Season the steak medallions with salt and freshly cracked black pepper on both sides.
- Once the oil is hot, add the steak medallions to the skillet. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until you achieve a nice crust.
- Add the butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Allow the butter to melt and the garlic to become fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and lemon juice. Stir well to combine the flavors and coat the steak medallions.
- Cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the steaks are cooked to your desired doneness.
- Remove the steak medallions from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This ensures all those tasty juices stay locked in.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
Remember, cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of your medallions, so keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.
