Beef Medallions in Creamy Brown Gravy

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium‑high heat.

  • Sear medallions 2–3 minutes per side until well browned.

  • Transfer to a plate; they will finish cooking in the sauce.

  • Make the gravy

    • In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add butter.

    • Sauté onion/leeks 3–5 minutes until softened and lightly golden.

    • Stir in garlic; cook 30 seconds.

    • Sprinkle flour over and cook 1–2 minutes, stirring.

    • Whisk in beef broth gradually, scraping up browned bits.

    • Add Worcestershire and Dijon. Simmer 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened.

  • Finish with cream and beef

    • Stir in cream and bring to a gentle simmer.

    • Return beef (and any juices) to the pan, turning to coat in gravy.

    • Simmer on low 4–6 minutes, or until internal temp is about 135–145°F (57–63°C) in the thickest part, with 145°F plus a short rest as a widely recommended safe minimum for whole cuts.​

    • Taste gravy and adjust salt and pepper.

  • Serve

    • Garnish with parsley.

    • Serve beef medallions and plenty of gravy over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, rice, or crusty bread.

  • This swap keeps the same rich, glossy gravy and technique as the pork version, but uses beef and its cooking temperature guidelines for a steak‑style main dish.​
