Tender grilled Lamb Medallions are rich and flavorful. Smokey bacon and smooth red wine sauce elevate this homemade dish to gourmet status.

INGREDIENTS

– Lamb Medallions – bacon – red wine – beef broth – butter – flour – olive oil – fresh thyme – salt and pepper

STEP 1

Cook the bacon until just pliable. Remove it and drain on a paper-towel lined plate.

STEP 2

Secure a piece of bacon around each lamb medallion. We used a toothpick. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Set aside and prepare the sauce.

STEP 3

Red Wine Sauce

Melt the butter in a skillet or saucepan and add the flour. Whisk until smooth.

STEP 4

Add the red wine and fresh thyme. Continue whisking until it starts to thicken. Stir in the beef broth and simmer until thickened. Salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat.

STEP 5

Grilled Lamb Medallions

Heat the grill and raise the rack so it's not directly on top of the heat but still over direct heat.

STEP 6

Grill the medallions 3 to 4 minutes on each side and remove when the internal temperature of the meat reaches 125°F.
