Ingredients
3/4 cup barbecue sauce
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tsp crumbled dried rosemary
1 1/2 lbs assorted mixed mushrooms (button, crimini, portobello, shiitake, or oyster)
1 sweet onion, cut into wedges
Salt and pepper (to taste)
2 tbsp butter
1 1/2 lbs beef strip loin grilling medallions (about 6, 1-inch thick)
Instructions
-
Prepare the sauce: In a bowl, combine barbecue sauce, lemon juice, garlic, green onions, and rosemary. Set aside 1/4 cup of the mixture for basting.
-
Cook the mushrooms: Cut mushrooms into large chunks, keeping oyster mushrooms whole. Toss with onion, salt, and pepper. In a pan, sauté with butter over medium heat for about 12 minutes until caramelized and the liquid evaporates. Stir in the remaining barbecue sauce mixture and heat through.
-
Grill the beef: Season the beef medallions with salt and pepper. Grill over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, basting occasionally with the reserved sauce. Let the beef rest for 5 minutes.
-
Serve: Top the grilled beef medallions with the caramelized mushrooms and serve.
Notes
Marinate the Beef: For extra flavor, marinate the beef medallions in 1/4 cup of the basting sauce for 8-12 hours before grilling.
Vegetarian Option: Use thick slices of portobello mushrooms in place of the beef for a hearty vegetarian alternative.
