- 1). Use grilling medallions cut from top sirloin, ribeye or strip loin. Rub salt and pepper and/or your favorite herbs and/or steak seasoning all over the medallions. Set aside.
- 2). Pour enough oil (or half oil and half butter) to cover the bottom of a stainless steel frying pan. Heat until the oil is sizzling, but not smoking. Using tongs, place medallions into pan. Add more butter and/or oil, if needed. The average cooking time for a medium done steak is about 6 to 8 minutes on each side, less time for medium rare and more for medium well or well done.
- 3). Flip the medallions over and brown on the other side. Remove medallions from pan and cover loosely with foil. Immediately start preparing the pan sauce.
- 4). Add chopped onions and garlic to the same pan the meat was browned in, then add your favorite herbs and seasonings, a little more oil and butter, if needed. Stir in beef or vegetable stock and a splash of your favorite wine. Using a wooden spoon, deglaze the pan by stirring up the brown bits.
- 5). Cook and stir about 5 minutes, or until thickened and slightly reduced. Remove from heat, pour the sauce into a small bowl and serve on top of or alongside the medallions.
