SLICED CHILI RUBBED FLANK STEAK ON SPICY RICE WITH SHRIMP AND GUACAMOLE STACKS

Steps:

• Preheat outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to high. Rub the meat with a mixture of grill seasoning, chili powder and the lime zest. Let meat stand 10 minutes. Grease grill surface then add meat and cook 7 to 8 minutes on the first side, 5 to 6 minutes on the flip side for medium doneness.
• For the rice, heat a medium sauce pot over medium heat. Add butter, and when melted add rice and toast for a couple of minutes. Add the onion, bell pepper, jalapeno and garlic and cook for a few minutes to begin to soften the veggies. Add stock and raise heat to bring up to a bubble. Stir in the tomato paste and hot sauce. Reduce heat to simmer, cover the pot and cook 18 minutes, until rice is tender. Add shrimp to the pot in the last 5 minutes of cooking. The shrimp will steam on top of the rice. Cook the shrimp until pink and firm. Combine the seafood and cilantro into the rice and season with salt, to taste.
• Season sliced tomatoes with salt and dress the avocado with lemon juice. Make 4 stacks alternating the tomatoes with avocado and onions.
• Slice the steaks and serve on a bed of shrimp rice, the guacamole stacks alongside. Garnish the guacamole stacks with cheese crumbles.

CHILI-LIME FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Grate the zest of 1 lime; cut the lime in half. Combine zest with the chili powder, brown sugar, thyme, cumin, chipotle powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Squeeze the zested lime over the steak and use the lime halves to rub the juice into the meat. Rub the spice mixture on both sides of the steak. Let stand at room temperature, 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium high. Brush the grates with vegetable oil. Grill the steak until well browned, about 8 minutes. Flip and grill until a thermometer inserted sideways into the center registers 130 degrees F to 140 degrees F, 5 to 7 more minutes for medium rare (the thinner edges of the steak will be cooked to medium).
• Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Season with salt and thinly slice against the grain. Serve with lime wedges.

STUFFED MEXICAN FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Put the crumbled corn bread in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
• Place the flank steak on a flat surface. Hold a long, sharp carving knife parallel to the surface and cut the steak lengthwise in half to make two long rectangles of equal thickness. This may be done by the butcher. Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper.
• Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a skillet and add half of the onions, half of the celery, half of the green peppers and half of the garlic. Cook, stirring, until the mixture is wilted. Let cool briefly. Add this to the corn bread. Add salt, pepper and the eggs.
• Remove and discard the stems of the jalapeno peppers. Chop the peppers and add them to the bowl. Add the parsley and blend well with the fingers.
• Spoon equal portions of the cornbread mixture onto each half of the meat. Carefully roll the meat jellyroll-style, starting at the narrower end of each portion of the meat. It will be almost impossible to enclose the filling without a portion of it falling out. This is a minor problem. Continue to roll and enclose each filling as neatly as possible. Tie the meat with string in several places to secure it.
• Heat the remaining three tablespoons of oil in a skillet and add the stuffed meat rolls. Brown the meat as neatly as possible on all sides, turning it carefully. Once more, a portion of the filling will fall into the skillet, which is to be expected.
• When the meat is browned, scatter the remaining onions, celery, green peppers and garlic around the rolls. Sprinkle the vegetables with the chili powder, cumin and oregano. Stir to blend and add the crushed tomatoes, broth, salt and pepper. Stir.
• Bring to the boil, cover and place in the oven. Bake about one hour. Transfer the meat to a serving dish and remove the strings. Pour the sauce into a saucepan and skim off the excess fat. Bring to the boil.
• Cut the meat into rounds and serve hot with the sauce. Serve with Mexican table sauce on the side, if desired.

Cut off the big clump of seeds at the end of each chili pepper, but leave remaining seeds and ribs. Slice one pepper in quarters lengthwise and set aside to garnish steaks. Chop remaining chili peppers medium-fine and set aside. (This step may be done a day or more in advance. Refrigerate the peppers until ready to use.)
• In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of canola or olive oil. Add flour and cook briefly until it thickens to a roux. Add chicken stock, minced garlic and oregano, and cook briefly just to thicken. Then add the reserved chopped chilies, stir to mix, remove from heat and set aside.
• If using oven broiler, preheat to high.

Stuff each steak with some of the chili mixture, leaving aside about half a cup for garnish.

CHILI-STUFFED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Flank steak is a budget-friendly cut of beef that can be grilled like more expensive steaks because you tenderize the meat as you slice it. To save time, ask the butcher at the store to cut a pocket in the flank steak for you. Then, just stuff it with some canned chili and diced green chilies, rub it with a little chili powder, and brush it with some barbeque sauce right before it's done grilling. Once grilled, cut the steak in thin slices against the grain and you will have a hearty main dish that melts in the mouth. Note: use a little bit of vegetable or canola oil to rub on the surface of the steak before you grill to keep it from sticking. Ingredients: 1 1/4 pounds lean flank steak (about 1/2-inch thick), pocket cut 1 can (14.5 oz) chili with beans, drained 1/4 cup canned diced green chilies 2 teaspoons canola or vegetable oil 2 teaspoons chili powder 1 cup low sodium barbecue sauce Preparation Time: Approximately 5 minutes Cook Time: Approximately 10 minutes Preparation: Heat a grill to high heat.
