Start with either Grilling Medallions such as Top Sirloin, Rib Eye or Strip Loin or Marinating Medallions – Inside Round, Cross Rib or Sirloin Tip
Season
If using Grilling Medallions simply rub all over with your favourite seasonings.
If using Marinating Medallions, pierce medallions all over with fork.
Place in large sealable freezer bag with 1 cup (250 mL) of your favourite marinade; refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours. Discard marinade.
Cook's Notes:
You can also marinate Grilling Medallions for flavour if you like; follow the instructions for Marinating Medallions, but marinate for only 15 to 60 minutes.
Cook
Grill, pan-fry or broil using medium-high heat, to desired doneness (see chart). Marinating Medallions are best cooked to medium doneness.
Cook's Notes:
No need to 'nick and peek' to know if your steak is done – a food thermometer takes out the guesswork. When close to being done, insert a digital rapid-read thermometer sideways into steak to know how well it's done.
