Flat Iron Steak With Roasted Garlic Butter With Fennel Gratin And Sauteed Kale Food

PAN-SEARED STEAK WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-duty pan over medium-high heat for at least 2-3 minutes or until smoking.
• Pat each steak dry with a paper towel. Generously season both sides with salt and pepper.
• Add the olive oil to the pan followed by the steak. Sear steak for 3-4 minutes on each side. Resist the urge to flip until the first side is browned. (For medium, cook 4 to 5 minutes on each side; for well-done, cook 5 to 6 minutes on each side).
• Remove steak from heat and rest for at least 5 minutes. Top with a scoop of the garlic butter and serve.

EASY FLAT IRON STEAK RECIPE

Steps:

• Peheat your broiler on high (500°F). Set an oven rack 6 inches below the heating element (not directly below). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
• Remove the steak from its packaging and place it on a cutting board. Blot it dry with paper towels.
• Coat the steak with olive oil and season on both sides with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
• Place the steak on the prepared baking sheet. Broil it on the first side for 6 minutes.
• Carefully turn the steak to the other side. Broil until it's medium-rare, about 6 more minutes.
• Transfer the cooked steak to a clean cutting board. Let it rest for five minutes, loosely covered with foil, then slice thinly and serve.

PERFECT FLAT IRON STEAK

Steps:

• Place the steak inside of a large resealable bag. In a small bowl, stir together the olive oil, garlic, parsley, rosemary, chives, Cabernet, salt, pepper and mustard powder. Pour over the steak in the bag. Press out as much air as you can and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the steak in the hot skillet for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or to your desired degree of doneness. Discard the marinade. These steaks taste best at medium rare. Allow them to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

FOOLPROOF FLAT IRON STEAKS

Steps:

• Place steaks, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, thyme, mustard, and black pepper in an extra large resealable plastic bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Knead the bag with your hands to distribute ingredients evenly and completely coat the steaks. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove steaks from refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• Remove steaks from bag and discard marinade.
• Cook steaks on the preheated grill until they start to firm and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 6 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove steaks to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

ROASTED GARLIC FLAT IRON STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Arrange garlic cloves on a baking sheet. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over garlic.
• Bake garlic in preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once to prevent burning. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
• Place cooled garlic and 1/2 cup olive oil in a food processor; blend until mixture is a paste.
• Season steaks with salt and pepper. Rub garlic paste on both sides of each steak.
• Place a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the steaks until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees to 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), about 5 minutes per side. Remove the whole pan from the heat and let stand until steaks reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), or your desired degree of doneness.

FLAT IRON STEAK WITH ROASTED GARLIC BUTTER WITH FENNEL GRATIN AND SAUTEED KALE

Steps:

• Cooking Guidelines To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures: Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) | Seafood 145° F | Chicken 165° F | Ground Beef 160° F | Ground Turkey 165° F | Ground Pork 160° F 1 Prepare the Ingredients Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with foil. Set butter out to soften. Thoroughly rinse produce and pat dry. Trim ends of fennel bulb, quarter lengthwise. Use the tip of your knife to cut along the line where the tough core meets the rest of the fennel bulb on each section. Cut into 1/4" slices. Stem kale and coarsely chop. Halve tomatoes. Combine parmesan cheese and panko in small bowl and stir together. Rinse steak, pat dry, and season with a large pinch of salt and pepper. 2 Roast the Garlic Place garlic on a piece of foil, at least 6" by 6". Pour 1/4 tsp. olive oil over garlic and season with a small pinch of salt. Bring foil corners together and scrunch to form a pouch. Place pouch on prepared baking sheet and bake in oven until garlic is soft, about 12-15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool down. Reserve baking sheet for future step. Smash roasted garlic with the side of a knife or just mince it. In a small bowl, stir together smashed garlic, softened butter, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside. 3 Make the Fennel Gratin Place a medium oven-safe pan over medium heat and melt 1 Tbsp. butter. Add fennel and 1/4 tsp. salt and stir together. Cover and cook 3-5 minutes, until fennel begins to get tender and caramelizes slightly. Remove cover, add evaporated milk and increase heat to high. Bring to a boil then remove from heat. If your pan isn't oven-safe, transfer fennel and cream to a casserole dish prepared with cooking spray. Sprinkle top with parmesan-panko mixture and place pan on top rack of oven. Bake 7-10 minutes, until the top is golden brown. Set aside. 4 Cook the Steaks Place a medium pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add steaks to pan and sear until browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and repeat process. Remove steaks from pan and place on previously used baking sheet. Reserve pan for next step: no need to wipe clean. Roast steaks in oven until they reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, about 5 minutes, then remove from oven. Rest steaks at least 5 minutes. 5 Cook the Kale and Tomatoes Return pan from previous step to medium-high heat. Add kale to pan, stir, and cook 2-3 minutes. Kale will crowd the pan at first but will wilt quickly. Add tomatoes, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook for an additional 3 minutes, until kale is wilted and tomatoes are slightly softened. Remove from heat. 6 Plate the Dish Place half of fennel gratin on each plate. Divide kale and tomatoes between both plates. Lean steak against kale and place half of the butter on each steak.

STEAKHOUSE STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a large, well-seasoned cast iron skillet over high heat until very hot, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and brush them lightly with vegetable oil. Combine the fleur de sel and cracked pepper on a plate and roll the steaks in the mixture, pressing lightly to evenly coat all sides.
• When the skillet is ready, add the steaks and sear them evenly on all sides for about 2 minutes per side, for a total of 10 minutes.
• Top each steak with a tablespoon of butter, if using, and place the skillet in the oven. Cook the steaks until they reach 120 degrees F for rare or 125 degrees F for medium-rare on an instant-read thermometer. (To test the steaks, insert the thermometer sideways to be sure you're actually testing the middle of the steak.)
• Remove the steaks to a serving platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. Serve hot with Roquefort Chive Sauce on the side.
• Bring the heavy cream to a boil in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook at a low boil, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has become thick and creamy, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, add the cheese, salt, pepper and chives and whisk rapidly until the cheese melts.
• Yield: 4 servings

FENNEL GRATIN

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Add the fennel, Parmesan, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon salt and toss to combine.
• 2. Whisk the mustard into the heavy cream and pour over the fennel mixture. Bake until bubbling and golden, about 1 hour.

PAN SEARED & OVEN ROASTED GARLIC BUTTER STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
• Mix parsley and garlic. Sprinkle lightly with salt and mash slightly to mix, then mix with butter.
• Melt the butter mixture over low heat in a small pan.
• Season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper and place a heavy pan or iron skillet over high heat. Lightly coat pan with oil when hot. Sear the steak until browned on one side (5 minutes). Turn the steak and brush the top generously with the flavored butter.
• Place into the heated oven and cook to your preference (check after 5 minutes by cutting into the center of one of the steaks). The meat will continue to cook from residual heat, so remove it from the oven when slightly less done than you wish.
• Pour remaining butter and any pan juices over the meat and let it stand for a few minutes before serving.

FLAT IRON, GRILLED

Steps:

• Lay steaks out on a platter and allow to come to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Whisk together the olive oil, pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, brown sugar, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Evenly rub one side of each steak with the mixture.
• Lay the steaks on the hot grill with the seasoned-side facing up for 2 minutes. Flip and sear the seasoned side about 2 minutes.
• Transfer steaks to preheated oven; bake to desired doneness, seasoned-side up, 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well. Allow to rest 3 to 4 minutes before serving.
