Broiled Porterhouse With Roasted Garlic And Lemon Recipes

ROASTED GARLIC LEMON BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, toss broccoli florets with the extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, pepper and garlic. Spread the broccoli out in an even layer on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until florets are tender enough to pierce the stems with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and transfer to a serving platter. Squeeze lemon juice liberally over the broccoli before serving for a refreshing, tangy finish.

BROILED PORTERHOUSE WITH SALMORIGLIO

Steps:

• For the salmoriglio: In a medium bowl, whisk together the garlic, rosemary, thyme, lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil and salt. Set aside at room temperature for at least 45 minutes or in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours to let the flavors marry.
• For the steak: Remove the porterhouse from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking; preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a 12-inch stainless steel or cast-iron skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat for 3 minutes. Sprinkle the steak all over with the salt. When the oil begins to show slight wisps of smoke, add the steak to the pan and cook undisturbed for 2 minutes. Flip the steak and transfer the pan to the oven. Roast for 7 to 10 minutes for medium doneness. Remove from the oven and immediately spoon 2 tablespoons of the salmoriglio over the steak. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the remaining salmoriglio.

WHITING WITH GARLIC AND LEMON

Steps:

• Clean and fillet fish. Remove heads and tails. In bowl, mix 3/4 cup oil, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, salt and pepper. Dredge fish in flour. In large saute pan, heat remaining oil. Saute fish until golden brown. Remove and pour lemon mixture over and cover. Let sit for 5 minutes and serve.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Set up your grill for direct heat by building the coals evenly on the bottom. Place a large cast-iron pan on the grill to preheat.
• Place the cauliflower in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then transfer to the cast-iron pan in an even layer. Close the lid of the grill and cook, giving it a toss halfway through, until charred and tender, 7 to 10 minutes. In the meantime, mix together the cilantro, cumin seeds, scallions, lime juice and zest and 1/4 cup olive oil. Mix well to combine and season with salt and pepper. Remove the cauliflower from the grill and toss in the dressing. Serve.

BROILED LEMON-GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Position an oven rack about 8 to 10 inches from the broiler and preheat. Grate the lemon zest and combine in a small bowl with the butter, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Mash with a fork to make a smooth paste.
• With your fingers, gently loosen the skin on the chicken breasts, legs and thighs. Spread the flavored butter under the skin as evenly as possible. Halve the lemons and squeeze 2 halves over the chicken; season with salt and pepper.
• Place the chicken skin-side up on a broiler pan (or a rack on a baking sheet). Position the halves about 2 inches apart with the thick parts of the legs facing the center. Arrange the remaining 2 lemon halves cut-side down next to the chicken.
• Broil the chicken until the skin is light brown and crisp, about 8 minutes. If the chicken browns too quickly, lower the oven rack. Flip the chicken and the lemons and continue to broil until almost cooked through (a thermometer inserted into the thickest part will register 160 degrees), about 15 minutes. Remove the lemons, if browned; turn the chicken again and broil until the skin is brown and crisp and the thermometer registers 165 degrees, about 2 more minutes. Serve the chicken with the broiled lemons for squeezing on top.
