Step 1
Remove the Silver Fern Farms Venison Medallions from the packaging and leave to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.
Step 2
For the dressing, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar and honey in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Combine the ground cilantro and ground fennel with ¼ a teaspoon of salt and pepper. Rub medallions with olive oil then sprinkle over the spice mix. Heat a barbecue hot plate or frying pan to medium-high. Cook the medallions for 2-3 minutes on each side, until cooked to medium rare. Transfer to a plate, cover with foil and rest for 5 minutes.
Step 4
Add the pear slices to the barbecue or pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned.
