SPICE-RUBBED NY STRIP, FRIED POTATOES AND BROCCOLI RABE

Steps:

• For the NY strip: Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Mix together the paprika, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Season the steaks liberally with salt and pepper on both sides. Rub the spice rub on one side of the steaks and let sit 5 minutes.
• Heat a few tablespoons of canola oil in a medium cast-iron pan over high heat until smoking. Add the steaks spice rub-side down and cook, without touching, until a crust forms, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until a crust forms on the bottom, about 4 minutes.
• Add the butter and rosemary to the pan. Transfer to the oven and cook, basting occasionally with the butter, until a thermometer inserted in the center registers 130 degrees F (for medium-rare), about 10 minutes. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with some of the brown butter.
• For the crispy potatoes: Put the potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water by 2 inches and add 2 tablespoons of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until a skewer inserted into the center meets with no resistance, about 25 minutes. Drain well and place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels to dry further.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut into 1/2-inch dice. Place the potatoes on a large plate or baking sheet and gently smash them a bit; season well with salt and pepper. Line another large plate or baking sheet with paper towels.
• Heat 3 inches of canola oil in a large high-sided saute pan over medium heat until it registers 365 degrees F. Fry the potatoes in batches in an even layer in the pan until golden brown on all sides and cooked through, about 3 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes with a slotted spoon to the plate lined with paper towels and immediately season with the cheese and more salt and pepper. Repeat with remaining potatoes. Transfer to a platter and garnish with the parsley, oregano and pickled shallots or onions.
• For the broccoli rabe with garlic, oil and red chile: Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add 1 tablespoon of salt. Prepare an ice bath.

• Heat a few tablespoons of olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the chile flakes and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the broccoli rabe, season with salt and pepper and cook, tossing constantly in the oil, until just warmed through and crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add a bit of the cooking water if needed. Transfer to a platter and drizzle with more oil, if desired.

• Bring steak to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
• While steak comes to room temperature, prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 1 to 2 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderately high.
• Grill steak on lightly oiled grill rack, uncovered, turning over once, 4 to 6 minutes total for medium-rare.
• Cut steak diagonally across grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Divide sweet-potato salad among 6 plates, then top with steak and arugula.
