This is a winner! It is easy and wonderful. I used the "new" packets on the market "Simply Lime" and instead of Guava Jelly I used my homemade red current jelly. I am going to freeze some of the medallions for another meal and see if they are still moist after freezing. It is very difficult to obtain "dark rum" I still have some from a visit to Puerto Rico but I am sure you could use regular rum also. Thanks for posting.
