Steak With Herby Cream Sauce Food

ROASTED CABBAGE STEAKS WITH CRISPY CHICKPEAS AND HERBY CROUTONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Slice 1 cabbage into 1"-thick steaks. Cut the second cabbage in half (if using). Arrange on a large rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with oil. Turn steaks and halves and drizzle second sides with oil; season with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Arrange cabbage halves cut side down and roast until golden brown on the bottom and tender, 35-40 minutes. (Reserve cabbage halves for another use. Let cool, then cover and chill.)
• Meanwhile, place chickpeas on another rimmed baking sheet and pat dry with a clean towel. Add cumin, 1/4 cup oil, 1 tsp. coriander, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper and toss to combine. Roast, stirring once halfway through, until golden and crisp, 20-25 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside; reserve baking sheet (no need to wash).
• Tear bread into bite-size chunks. Whisk 1/4 cup oil, 1 grated garlic clove, 1 tsp. mustard, 2 Tbsp. chopped parsley, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper, and remaining 1/4 tsp. coriander in a large bowl to combine. Add torn bread and toss well to coat. As soon as chickpeas are done roasting, transfer bread to reserved baking sheet and roast until golden and crispy, 10���12 minutes.
• Whisk mayonnaise, lemon juice, and remaining grated garlic, 1 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. mustard, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a small bowl. Taste and season with salt if needed.
• Smear mayonnaise sauce on plates and top with cabbage steaks. Top cabbage with chickpeas and croutons. Drizzle with more mayonnaise sauce, thinning with lemon juice or water if needed to make it pourable. Top with parsley leaves.

STEAK WITH HERBY CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook the asparagus in a large pan of simmering, salted water for 5-6 minutes or until tender. Drain well, stir in the butter and keep warm.
• Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pan and gently cook the shallots until translucent. Add the garlic, cook for one minute then add the wine.
• Reduce for 2 minutes, and then stir in the mustard, cream, and tarragon. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in a wide pan. Cook the steaks for 2 - 4 minutes each side, depending on how you like your steaks cooked.
• Serve the steaks on a bed of asparagus with the sauce poured over.

FLANK STEAK WITH LEMON-LIME HERB SAUCE

Steps:

• Remove the flank steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking to bring it to room temperature.
• In a medium bowl, add the scallions, chives, olive oil, basil, parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, lime zest, lime juice, mustard, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Stir to combine and set aside.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil onto one side of the steak and use a silicone brush to spread it all over the steak. Sprinkle with a nice pinch of kosher salt and pepper. Transfer the meat to the grill pan, seasoning side down. Drizzle the other side of the steak with a small amount of olive oil and once again brush it to cover and sprinkle with salt and pepper. For medium-rare, cook the steak until the internal temperature is 135 degrees F, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove the steak to a plate and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• Slice the steak against the grain. Add the slices to a platter and spoon on the lemon-lime herb sauce. Serve extra sauce on the side.

BEEF STROGANOFF WITH HERBY PASTA

Steps:

• Freeze the beef for 45 mins before you begin, slice as thinly as you can, then season.
• In a large, non-stick frying pan, melt half the butter with half the oil. Increase the heat, then quickly sear the beef in batches until browned on both sides. Remove the meat and set aside. Repeat with the mushrooms, then set aside with the beef. Boil the pasta.
• Add the remaining butter and oil to the pan and soften the shallots for a few mins. Stir in the flour for 1 min, then gradually stir in the stock. Bubble for 5 mins until thickened, then stir in the mustard, purée, crème fraîche and seasoning. Bubble for 1 min more, then return the beef and mushrooms to the pan.
• Drain the pasta, toss with half the parsley, season, then serve with the creamy stroganoff, sprinkled with the remaining parsley.

GRILLED BISTECCA WITH HERBY FISH SAUCE

Steps:

• Rub steak with 1/4 cup oil; season with salt and sprinkle with pepper (it should nearly cover both sides). Let sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
• Mix garlic, fish sauce, herbs, and remaining 1/4 cup oil in a small bowl.
• Prepare a grill for medium-high indirect heat (for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off; for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill). Grill steaks over direct heat until nicely charred, about 2 minutes per side. Move steaks over indirect heat and continue grilling, basting with fish sauce mixture, until browned all over, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of steaks should register 120°F for rare; temperature will rise to 125°F (or medium-rare) as they rest. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 20 minutes before slicing against the grain.

COGNAC SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a heavy medium-size saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the shallots and garlic and saute until transparent, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Then add the cognac and flame.
• To do this, remove the saucepan from the heat and touch a lighted match to the edge of the pan; the fumes of the cognac will ignite.
• Holding the pan away from you, allow the flames to die down naturally.
• Add the stock and cream and simmer over low heat until thickened, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms and continue to simmer 3 to 5 minutes more.
• Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
