Medallions are small, round cuts of meat, typically beef, pork, or chicken, prized for their tender texture and quick cooking time. Originating in European cuisine, they are often used in dishes like steak medallions with wine-based sauces, a hallmark of French and Italian kitchens. Lean medallions, such as those from chicken breast or pork tenderloin, are a protein-packed choice, low in fat and rich in essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins. However, preparation methods like frying or pairing them with heavy sauces can add calories and saturated fat. Opting for grilled or broiled medallions alongside fresh vegetables keeps the dish heart-healthy and nutrient-balanced. With their versatile flavor profile, medallions can be seasoned simply or enhanced with bold spices, making them a staple in wholesome, global cuisine.
