Brown Sugar Skirt Steak With Succotash Food

BROWN SUGAR SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• 1. Preheat a grill to high heat. Mix the brown sugar, 2 tablespoons salt, and 1 tablespoon pepper together in a small bowl. Rub into the steaks and set aside for 15 to 20 minutes.
• 2. Drizzle the onion with olive oil and season with some salt. Grill on each side until soft and darkly charred, about 8 minutes. Set aside.
• 3. Grill the steaks on high heat until crisp, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes, and then slice the steaks across the grain. Serve over the grilled onions with a lime wedge.

SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• Heat charcoal, preferably natural chunk, until grey ash appears. In a blender, put in oil, soy sauce, scallions, garlic, lime juice, red pepper, cumin, and sugar and puree. In a large heavy duty, zip top bag, put pieces of skirt steak and pour in marinade. Seal bag, removing as much air as possible. Allow steak to marinate for 1 hour in refrigerator.
• Remove steak from bag and pat dry with paper towels. Using a blow dryer, blow charcoal clean of ash. Once clean of ash lay steaks directly onto hot coals for 1 minute per side. When finished cooking, place meat in double thickness of aluminum foil, wrap, and allow to sit for 15 minutes.
• Remove meat from foil, reserving foil and juices. Slice thinly across the grain of the meat. Return to foil pouch and toss with juice. Serve with grilled peppers and onions, if desired.

BARBECUE CHICKEN WITH SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 425 degrees F. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and place on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast until the skin is golden and crisp, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the barbecue sauce: Combine the cider, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and 1 tablespoon mustard in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallion whites, bell pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables soften slightly, about 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water, the corn, lima beans and the remaining 1 teaspoon mustard. Bring to a simmer and continue cooking until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the scallion greens.
• Turn on the broiler. Brush the chicken with the prepared barbecue sauce and broil until the sauce is thick and bubbling, about 3 minutes. Serve with the succotash.

SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, jalapeno, and salt and season with pepper to taste. Cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the corn and sugar and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 10 minutes. (If the mixture gets dry while cooking add a couple teaspoons of water.) Raise the heat to medium-high, add the lima beans and marjoram and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and parsley and season generously with pepper. Serve immediately.

STOUT SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• Whisk beer, olive oil, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, and hot sauce together in a glass or ceramic bowl until marinade is smooth. Add steak to marinade and turn to coat. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove steak from marinade and shake off any excess. Discard marinade.
• Cook steak on the preheated grill, turning once, until steak starts to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 5 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Let rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
