Pan Grilled Steak Food

PAN-GRILLED LAMB SHOULDER CHOPS

Steps:

• To make the marinade: whisk the lemon juice, mustard, rosemary, garlic, and 1 teaspoon of the salt together in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil and season with pepper.
• Transfer the marinade to a large sealable plastic bag. Put the lamb chops in the bag, seal, and shake vigorously to evenly coat the meat. Marinate at room temperature for 1 hour or in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and up to 12.
• Remove the chops from the marinade and transfer them to a plate. Discard the marinade. Using a spoon, lightly scrape the remaining marinade off the chops and pat them dry.
• Preheat a large cast-iron grill pan over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Raise the heat to medium-high. Season the chops with salt. Place 2 chops on the grill pan, and cook until the chops have distinctive grill marks, about 3 minutes. To make crosshatched grill marks, re-position the chops, moving them about 45 degrees on the ridged pan, and continue to cook about 3 minutes more. (The chops will have only cooked on one side at this point.) Set the chops aside and repeat with the remaining 2 chops. Return the first set of chops to the pan to cook them on the other side. Reduce the heat to medium low, and cook the chops until medium-rare, about 2 minutes. Repeat with the other chops. Let the chops rest for about 5 minutes and serve.

PAN-SEARED STEAKS

Steps:

• To begin, pat the steaks dry with paper towels.
• Season the steaks all over with the salt and pepper.
• Turn on your exhaust fan and heat a heavy pan (preferably cast iron or stainless steel) over medium-high heat until it's VERY hot.
• Add the oil to the pan and heat until it begins to shimmer and move fluidly around the pan.
• Carefully set the steaks in the pan, releasing them away from you so the oil doesn't splatter in your direction. The oil should sizzle.
• Leave the steaks alone! Avoid the temptation to peek or fiddle or flip repeatedly; the steaks need a few minutes undisturbed to develop a golden crust. Flip the steaks when they release easily and the bottom is a deep-brown color, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook the steaks for another 3 to 4 minutes on the second side for rare to medium-rare. (For medium, cook 4 to 5 minutes on second side; for well-done, cook 5 to 6 minutes on second side).
• During the last minute of cooking, add the butter and thyme sprigs to the pan with the steaks.
• If you are serving the steaks unsliced, transfer them to plates and serve hot. If you plan to slice the steaks, transfer them to a cutting board and let rest, covered with aluminum foil, for 5 to 10 minutes; then slice thinly against the grain.

PAN-FRIED STEAK

Steps:

• Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet (preferably cast iron) over high 5 minutes. Generously season steaks with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon butter to pan, then immediately top with one steak. Repeat with remaining 1/2 teaspoon butter and steak. Cook without moving steaks until a golden brown crust forms, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook 2 minutes more for rare, or 3 to 4 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Slice steaks against the grain; serve with sauce, if desired.
• Heat a 10- or 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat. Season the steaks liberally with salt and pepper. Seconds before adding a steak, drop 1/2 teaspoon of the butter into the pan and immediately top with the steak. Repeat with the remaining steak. Sear for 3 minutes without moving the steak (to form a crust). Turn and cook for 2 minutes for rare or 3 to 4 for medium rare. Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest on a board or platter for a few minutes before serving.

PAN-SEARED RIB-EYE

Steps:

• Place a 10-to-12-inch cast-iron skillet in the oven and heat the oven to 500 degrees F. Bring the steak to room temperature.
• When the oven reaches temperature, remove the skillet and place on the range over high heat for 5 minutes. Coat the steak lightly with oil and sprinkle both sides with a generous pinch of salt. Grind on black pepper.
• Immediately place the steak in the middle of the hot, dry skillet. Cook 30 seconds without moving. Turn with tongs and cook another 30 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 2 minutes. Flip the steak and cook for another 2 minutes. (This time is for medium-rare steak. If you prefer medium, add a minute to both of the oven turns.)
• Remove the steak from the skillet, cover loosely with foil and rest for 2 minutes. Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.

ONE-PAN GRILLED STEAK AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Drizzle steak with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
• Lay eggplant out in an even layer on a wood board and lightly season both sides with salt.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large cast iron pan on the grill. Add Brussels sprouts and eggplant. Cook until browned on all sides, flipping halfway, about 15 minutes.
• Move vegetables to 1 side of the pan; add remaining olive oil. Turn the vegetable side of the pan towards the outer side of the grill where it it not as hot, keeping the open half of the skillet in the center of the grill.
• Place steak in the hot pan. Cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and continue grilling until the inside is to your desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes more; for medium, an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Let rest briefly before serving.

PAN-GRILLED BEER-MARINATED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• Whisk first 7 ingredients in medium bowl, then whisk in beer. Pour marinade into large resealable plastic bag. Add steaks, seal bag, and chill 1 day, turning bag occasionally.
• Spray large ridged skillet or grill pan with nonstick spray and heat over medium-high heat. Remove steaks from marinade and pat dry; discard marinade. Place steaks in hot skillet and cook until well browned and thermometer inserted into center registers 125F to 130F for medium-rare, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer steaks to carving board and let rest 5 minutes.
• Slice steaks thinly across grain. Arrange on platter; spoon any accumulated juices over and serve.

PAN-GRILLED STEAK

Steps:

• Directions
• Marinate the steaks in olive oil for at least 30 minutes. Drain off the oil - leaving a light film of oil on the steaks - and salt the steaks on both sides. Heat a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over a high setting. When hot add the steaks and char on one side. Turn the heat down to medium and continue cooking for about 3 minutes for medium rare. Turn the steaks with tongs and turn up the heat to high. Be careful not to cut into the steaks while turning so that you don't lose any of the juices. Sear the second side of the steaks, then turn the heat to medium and cook for another 3 minutes to medium rare. Add 2 to 3 minutes per side for well-done steaks. Serve with a green salad, Aji Asado (roasted marinated peppers), and Papas al Horno (roasted potatoes).
• Variations:
• If using an electric oven broiler, char one side of the steaks on a high broil on a preheated broiler pan with the rack as close as possible to the broiler element. When browned, turn steaks with tongs and brown the other side. Total cooking time with this method is about 5 minutes per side for medium rare.
• Less time is required for gas broilers and outdoor charcoal barbecues. If using the latter, char meat directly on a rack over very hot coals on the hottest part of the barbecue, then move the meat to a cooler area of the rack over the drip pan leaving the barbecue lid open about one inch. Return the meat to the hotter area to char the second side and then move it back over the drip pan.

PAN-SEARED STEAK WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Thoroughly pat steak dry with paper towels. Just before cooking, generously season with 1 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp black pepper
• Heat the cast iron pan until hot then add 1/2 Tbsp oil over medium-high heat, swirling to coat. Once the oil is very hot, add steaks to the skillet. Sear the steaks on the first side for 4 minutes until a brown crust has formed then flip and cook another 3-4 minutes. Using tongs, turn the steak on its sides to render the white fat and sear the edges (1-minute per edge).
• Reduce heat to medium and immediately add 2 Tbsp butter, quartered garlic cloves and rosemary to the pan. Spoon the butter sauce over the steak, tilting the pan to get butter on your spoon. Continue spooning the sauce over the steak for a minute or until the steak is about 5-10 degrees from your desired doneness (the temperature will continue to rise another 5-10 degrees while steaks rest).
• Transfer steak to a cutting board, loosely cover and rest 10 minutes before slicing into 1/2" strips to serve. Spoon extra butter sauce over sliced steak to serve.

PERFECTLY COOKED STEAK IN A GRILL PAN

Steps:

• Start by removing the steak from the packaging and patting it dry with a paper towel. This step is important because if there is moisture on the steak it will create steam, and you don't want to steam your steak, you want to sear it creating a flavorful crust on the outside, right?
• Then generously coat it with a layer of seasoning salt and seasoning pepper - these are spice mixes available at your grocery store that add more flavor than salt and pepper alone.
• Rub the seasoning into the beef.
• Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium high heat. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
• Once the butter just starts to brown, add the steak. Let the steak cook for 2 minutes, then rotate it 90 degrees (to create criss crossing grill marks) and let cook for another 2 minutes.
• Then flip the steak. Cook for 2 minutes, rotate 90 degrees, cook another 2 minutes.
• Remove the steak from the grill pan and let it rest for 5 minutes. If you are nervous that your steak won't be cooked enough, insert a meat thermometer sideways into the center of the steak. You will want it to read 120 degrees, since the internal temperature of the steak will increase slightly as it rests.
• Immediately melt another tablespoon of butter in the same grill pan, add the sliced shallot and mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 5 minutes. Once that was ready, I quickly wilted some spinach in olive oil and seasoned it with salt - mostly because I wanted to put something green on the plate.
• Now that your vegetables are ready and your meat has rested, serve your steak. It should be nice and pink and juicy in the middle.

CALAMARI STEAK RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking.
• While the oil heats, stir together the cheese, flour, and pepper in a wide shallow bowl, then lightly beat the egg with water in another wide shallow bowl.
• Dredge 1 calamari steak into the flour mixture, shaking off the excess, then dip in the egg mixture, letting the excess drip off, and transfer to a plate.
• Dredge another steak in flour and dip in egg in the same manner, then sauté the coated steaks over moderately high heat, turning over once for about 1½ minutes until golden.
• Transfer to a platter and keep warm, loosely covered. Dredge, dip and sauté the remaining steaks in the same manner, transferring to a platter.
• Pour off the fat from the skillet, then add butter, lemon juice to taste, and capers to the skillet and cook over moderate heat for about 45 seconds just until the butter melts.
• Pour the lemon caper sauce over the calamari steaks and serve immediately. Enjoy!

RIB EYE STEAK RECIPE

Steps:

• Choose your ribeye steak: You can buy either bone-in or boneless steak for this recipe. The most important thing is to buy a high quality steak (read: expensive. Mine was $15/pound.) The grade of the meat should be labeled USDA Prime, or Choice if you are desperate. Don't buy Select, it is not appropriate for this cooking method. The steak should be well marbled, which means that you can see lots of swirly white veins of fat all over the meat. Fat=flavor. Bring it on.
• Prepare your ribeye steak: At least 4 hours or up to 48 hours before you want to eat, prepare your steak by rubbing it with a ton of kosher salt. For 1 pound of steak, I used 2 teaspoons kosher salt (one teaspoon per side, and make sure to get the edges too). This sounds like a lot! But something magical happens while it sits for so long: the salt first draws out the moisture, but then absorbs it back into the meat and tenderizes and flavors the entire steak, not just the outside. Place the salted steak on a plate and put it in your fridge uncovered. Yes, uncovered. This allows the steak to dry out and give you an incredible sear when you cook it. (NOTE: If you are using table salt (regular salt that you find on the table in any restaurant) then use a total of 1 and 1/2 teaspoons).
• 30 minutes before cooking: Get your salted steak out of the fridge and set it on the counter for at least 30 minutes. Don't cook a cold steak, it will be overdone on the edges and undone in the middle. Just before cooking, drizzle the steak with 1-2 teaspoons canola or vegetable (or any high heat) oil, and rub it all over the steak. Don't be shy.
• Make the garlic butter sauce: In a small bowl, add 3-4 tablespoons butter and melt it in the microwave. (The more butter you use the more drizzling sauce you will end up with.) Add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 1 teaspoon thyme leaves, and 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary. (Use 1/2 teaspoon each dried thyme and rosemary if you don't have fresh). Use the side of a chef's knife to smash two cloves of garlic. Peel them and slice the garlic into strips. Add the garlic to the butter. Stir it together and set aside. If you have fresh thyme and rosemary, prep the sprigs you are using and set them nearby.
