1
Prepare the Beef
Trim any excess fat from the beef tenderloin and cut it into 1-inch thick medallions.
2
Marinate the Meat
In a bowl, combine the berbere spice blend, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Add the beef medallions and coat them well with the marinade. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for best results.
3
Cook the Medallions
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a little more olive oil if needed. Once hot, add the marinated beef medallions and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.
4
Finish and Serve
Remove the beef from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Drizzle with lemon juice and garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
