Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds beef tenderloin, trimmed, cut into 8 (4-ounce) medallions
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
8 sliced fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pinch salt
½ cup tomato sauce
⅓ cup Marsala wine
1 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano
1 ½ tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into cubes

Steps:

  • Season beef medallions with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over high heat. Cook beef until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Remove beef to a warm plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium; cook and stir mushrooms, 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, olive oil, and a pinch of salt in the skillet until mushrooms are very well browned, about 10 minutes.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 pounds tenderloin of beef, cut into 1-inch thick medallions
Salt and pepper to taste
1 small vidalia onion, cut into a medium dice
2 poblano peppers, washed, seeded and cut into a medium dice
1 tablespoon toasted and ground cumin seed
2 ounces gold tequila
1/4 cup lime juice
1 cup rich veal stock
2 ounces orange liquor
1 tablespoon orange zest
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil and butter in a saute pan over medium heat, season the beef medallions with salt and pepper, and add to the hot pan. Turn the heat up to high and char both sides of the beef well. To keep the beef rare to medium rare, cook quickly, turning once only after the beef has browned on the first side.
  • Remove the beef from the pan, place on a warm platter, and set aside.
  • Add the diced onions and poblano peppers to the saute pan, evenly spread out and cook till wilted. Add the cumin and combine well to toast the spice again.
  • Working carefully away from the flame, add the tequila to the pan, deglaze the pan by swirling the tequila and set back over low heat to reduce.
  • Add the lime juice and reduce to almost dry before adding the veal stock. Reduce the stock by half over high heat and add the orange liquor and fresh orange zest. Cook for 2 minutes and then add the heavy cream. Do not allow to boil but gently simmer for 2 minutes before adding the salt and pepper.
  • Serve the beef on a bed of sauce with corn pudding on the side.

My mom fell in love with these medallions of beef when she lived in California. When the restaurant was about to close, the owner took her back to the kitchen and taught her how to make them. We beg for them on all special occasions! Serve over wide egg noodles.
