Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb beef medallions (tenderloin or sirloin)
- 1 cup pure pomegranate juice
- 2 tbsp honey
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Pat the beef medallions dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Whisk together pomegranate juice, honey, minced garlic, and soy sauce in a bowl to create the marinade.
- Place the seasoned beef in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours).
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef medallions for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
- Remove the cooked medallions from the skillet. Pour the marinade into the same skillet, simmering until slightly thickened (about 5-7 minutes).
- Return the medallions to the skillet briefly to coat them in glaze before plating. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
