Strip Steaks With Chipotle Peach Glaze Food

STRIP STEAKS WITH CHIPOTLE-PEACH GLAZE

Steps:

• Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. In 1-quart saucepan, heat preserves, lime juice, chile and adobo sauce over low heat, stirring occasionally, until preserves are melted. Stir in chopped cilantro; set aside.
• Sprinkle each beef steak with garlic-pepper blend, cumin and salt. Cover and grill beef over medium heat 15 to 18 minutes for medium doneness, turning once or twice and brushing top of beef with preserves mixture during last 2 minutes of grilling. Add peach halves to grill for last 2 to 3 minutes of grilling just until heated.
• Heat any remaining preserves mixture to boiling; boil and stir 1 minute. Serve with beef and peaches. Garnish with cilantro sprigs.

STRIP STEAKS WITH MANGO-PEACH SALSA

Steps:

• Mix bell pepper, chilies and gingerroot in medium bowl. Stir in preserves, lime juice and mango.
• Set oven control to broil. Sprinkle both sides of beef with jerk seasoning. Place on rack in broiler pan. Broil with tops 4 to 6 inches from heat 6 to 10 minutes; turning once, until desired doneness. Serve with salsa mixture.

STRIP STEAKS WITH BLUE CHEESE GLAZE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together blue cheese, buttermilk, breadcrumbs, pecans, thyme, and parsley. Stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper and set glaze aside.
• Preheat a grill: If using a charcoal grill, make a fire in your grill. When the charcoals are completely covered in gray ash, hold your hand about 5 inches above the grill grid; count how many seconds you can comfortably leave it there. When you can hold it there for 2 to 3 seconds, you have medium-high heat and are ready to grill. If you are using a gas grill, heat the grill for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Before beginning to cook, reduce the temperature by turning the knobs to medium-high.
• Season steaks on both sides with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Place on grill and cook for 4 to 6 minutes. Turn steaks and cook 4 to 6 minutes more for medium-rare. Remove steaks from grill and top each with several tablespoons glaze. Let stand a couple minutes before serving.

STRIP STEAK WITH PEPPER CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
• Sprinkle steaks with kosher salt and crushed black pepper. Heat butter in a 12-inch, heavy bottomed saute pan over medium heat. Once butter is hot, add steaks and cook until browned on both sides, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare and 3 minutes per side for medium. Remove steaks from pan and place on a rack set on a sheet pan; place in oven to keep warm.
• Add the stock to the saute pan and whisk until the crispy bits release from bottom of pan. Allow the liquid to reduce for 3 to 4 minutes over medium-high heat. Add cognac, heavy cream, and green peppercorns to the pan. Increase heat to high and cook, whisking continually, until sauce thickens slightly, just enough to coat the back of a spoon; this will take 5 to 7 minutes.
• Season the sauce, to taste, with kosher salt. Place steaks on plates, top with sauce, and serve immediately.

GIANT CHIPOTLE-RUBBED STEAKS WITH CILANTRO-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill; if using a gas grill, turn both burners to high.
• Put all spice paste ingredients in a food processor and purée. Rub steaks all over with paste (it will be rather thick) and set aside.
• Combine ingredients for cilantro-lime butter in a small bowl and mash with a spoon until well mixed and an even consistency.
• When all coals are covered with gray ash and fire is medium hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for 3 to 4 seconds), put steaks on grill directly over coals and cook until well seared, about 7 minutes. Turn and cook another 7 to 10 minutes for medium rare. Remove from heat, top each steak with a couple tablespoons of butter, and serve.

PEACH-GLAZED BEEF FILETS

Steps:

• Sprinkle beef with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, cook steaks in oil over medium heat for 5-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°)., In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; pour over steaks. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until glaze is heated through.

STRIP STEAKS WITH CHIPOTLE PEACH GLAZE

Steps:

• Mix preserves, juice, and chilis, and heat to simmer over low heat.
• Stir in cilantro, garlic pepper, cumin, and salt.
• Grill the steaks to preferred doneness.
• Brush steaks with 1/2 of the preserves mixture.
• Boil the remaining mixture for 1 minute.
• Serve each steak with 1/2 peach, covering steak and peach with the boiled glaze.

SPICE-RUBBED RIB EYE STEAK WITH ORANGE-PINEAPPLE CHIPOTLE GLAZE

Steps:

• Prepare the glaze - you can make this ahead and reheat before use! In a saucepan blend the pineapple and orange juices with the vinegar, pureed chipotles and ground cumin. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer uncovered until mixture is reduced by 2/3, 45-60 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the lime juice, cilantro and salt and pepper to taste. (If you want to use as a basting sauce for other recipes, stop here.) Return mixture to heat, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer to reduce by almost one half. The glaze or basting sauce will keep, covered and refrigerated, for one month.
• For the steak, combine the toasted cumin seeds, cracked peppercorns and salt in a small bowl. Rub the steaks on both sides with the spice mixture. Let sit at room temperature while you heat the grill.
• Grill the steaks over very hot coals (or pan-sear the steaks over high heat) about 7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, 1-2 minutes longer for medium, less for rare, checking carefully for doneness since the thickness of the steaks and intensity of heat will affect cooking time.
• Remove steaks from heat when just slightly underdone: cooking will continue while standing. Brush with glaze, and allow steaks to stand for 5-8 minutes. Serve on warmed plates, with extra glaze on the side.

STEAK WITH CHIPOTLE-LIME CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• For chimichurri, place the first 5 ingredients in a food processor; pulse until finely chopped.

Transfer to a bowl; refrigerate, covered, until serving., Sprinkle steaks with the remaining salt and pepper. Grill, covered, over medium heat 5-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with chimichurri.
