Skirt Steak With Spicy Coconut Dressing Food

SKIRT STEAK WITH SPICY COCONUT DRESSING

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine chile, garlic, ginger, coconut cream, and lime juice. Season with salt and stir to combine. Stir in coconut and taste dressing: It should be fairly tangy, spicy, and salty to balance the mild iceberg. Dressing may seize up and seem very thick, but it will loosen up when tossed with the salad.
• Season steak on both sides with salt.
• Place a 10- or 12-inch skillet, preferably cast-iron, over medium-high heat. Add oil and when it shimmers, place steaks carefully into pan and cook, undisturbed, until browned on underside, 2-3 minutes. Turn and cook until browned on second side and medium-rare, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer steaks to a platter and let rest 5-10 minutes before cutting against the grain into 1/4-inch slices.
• Add lettuce and cilantro to bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Taste the lettuce and add more salt and/or lime juice if needed. Add avocado and toss gently to distribute. Serve steak and salad with lime wedges for squeezing over.

• Preheat a grill to high heat.

Mix the garlic paste with the cilantro, oil, habanero, mango, lime juice and scallions in a medium bowl. Season with salt and as much of the remaining habanero as desired for spiciness. Set aside.
• Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill steaks until well charred on the outside and medium-rare, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes then slice steaks across the grain and serve with the mango salsa and a lime wedge.

TENDER JUICY SKIRT STEAK (CHURRASCO)

Steps:

• Whisk garlic, balsamic vinegar, grill seasoning, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add steak and toss to evenly coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling; add meat. Cook uncovered until liquids have drained from the steak, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; cover.
• Cook steak for 15 minutes; uncover and flip. Add water to the skillet as needed to keep steak moist. Continue cooking until slightly firm, hot, and lightly pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Transfer meat to serving plate; reserve liquid in the skillet.
• Place onion in the skillet with reserved liquids; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low; add mushrooms. Cook and stir until mushrooms are warmed through, about 5 minutes. Pour onion mixture over steak.

SPICY CITRUS SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for two-zone cooking over high heat: For a charcoal grill, pour the coals onto one half of the grill. For a gas grill, heat all the burners, then turn off one of the end burners. (See Tips.)
• While the grill is heating, pat the steak dry and cut into 5- to 6-inch pieces with the grain. (This makes it easier to fit on the grill.) Set aside to air-dry while you make the sauce: Squeeze 1 cup of juice from about 6 tangerines into a bowl or rimmed dish large enough to hold the steak after it's grilled. (Set aside the remaining unjuiced halves on a sheet pan.) Add the spent tangerine halves to the juice. Smash the halves with a spoon to release the rind's oils (as if you're muddling a cocktail). To the juice and spent tangerine halves, add the rice vinegar, soy sauce, sambal oelek, ginger and garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
• When you're ready to grill, add the steak to the sheet pan of unjuiced tangerine halves and lightly coat everything with neutral oil. Season generously with salt. Bring the sheet pan of tangerine halves and steak, sauce, a tightly folded paper towel soaked with oil, and tongs to the grill. Clean the grates with a grill brush, then oil the grates with the paper towel. Grill the steak over direct heat, flipping halfway through, until well browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Grill the tangerines over direct heat, flipping halfway through, until blackened, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
• As the steak and tangerine halves finish, add them to the sauce and turn to coat. Squeeze the charred citrus with your tongs to release the juice and the peels into the dish. Let rest for at least 5 minutes and up to 30. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the sauce. Season to taste with salt, pepper and sambal oelek.

FUSION PRAWN / SHRIMP COCKTAIL WITH SPICY COCONUT DRESSING

Steps:

• To make the dressing, place the coconut milk in a medium saucepan with half the chili, and all the ginger and lemon grass. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Leave to cool for about 30 minutes to allow the flavours to infuse.
• Strain the dressing through a sieve into a bowl. Stir in the yoghurt, mint, lime zest and juice, and the remaining chili, season lightly and then stir in the shrimp.
• Divide the Romaine lettuce between 4 small serving dishes and spoon the shrimp and dressing over the top. Serve immediately, garnished with the reserved mint sprigs and a slice of lime, or a little more red chilli, finely sliced.

SPICY SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• At home
• One hour before packing, mix together the olive oil, lime juice, garlic, cumin, and coriander. Place the steaks in a resealable freezer bag and pour in the marinade, making sure the steaks are completely coated. Refrigerate.
• At the tailgate
• Prepare coals for a hot fire. When the coals are ready, transfer the skirt steaks directly from the marinade to the grill and cook for 8 to 9 minutes, turning once, for medium-rare, 9 to 10 minutes for medium. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let them rest for 5 minutes. While the steaks are resting, transfer the sliced onion, pepper, and cilantro to a medium serving bowl. Place the limes, cut side down, on the grill until they brown slightly, about 4 minutes. Set aside. Cut the steaks into 1/2-inch strips, then add them to the bowl with the onion mixture. Season with the hot sauce and salt, then squeeze the grilled limes over everything. Toss together and serve.
