In Quebec, cottage-industry cheeses are just one of the many regional treasures. The thick-cut Beef Medallions in this recipe make it easy to enjoy this steak-house experience at home.

Ingredients

16 oz (500 g) Beef Tenderloin or Grilling Medallions/Steak (1-inch/2.5 cm thick)


1 tbsp (15 mL) balsamic vinegar


½ cup (125 mL) whipping cream


½ tsp (2 mL) minced garlic


3 tbsp (45 mL) crumbled fresh goat cheese (e.g. Chevre)


¼ tsp (1 mL) dried basil leaves (or 1 tsp/5 mL chopped fresh basil)


1 small fresh tomato, seeded and finely diced


1 small green onion, white part only, chopped


1 tsp (5 mL) chopped fresh parsley


Salt and pepper


Olive oil

Directions

Brush steaks with vinegar; set aside.
Bring cream and garlic to boil in small saucepan; reduce heat to low and simmer until volume reduces by half. Remove from heat; stir in cheese with wooden spoon until completely blended. Stir in basil, tomatoes, green onion and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste; keep warm.
Brush meat with oil and grill over medium-high heat for 10 to 12 minutes, turning at least twice, for medium-rare doneness 145°F(63°C). Serve with warm sauce.
