Venison Medallions Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Venison

   Trim any excess fat from the venison loin and cut it into medallions about 1 inch thick. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Sear the Medallions

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the venison medallions and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   Make the Gorgonzola Crust

   In a bowl, combine the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, chopped parsley, minced garlic, and breadcrumbs. Mix until well combined.

4. 4

   Broil the Medallions

   Preheat the broiler. Place the seared venison medallions on a baking sheet. Top each medallion with the Gorgonzola mixture, pressing it down slightly.

5. 5

   Finish Cooking

   Broil the medallions in the oven for about 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden. Be careful not to burn.

6. 6

   Serve

   Remove from the oven and let rest for a minute. Serve warm, drizzled with melted butter and additional parsley if desired.
