Chili Stuffed Steak Recipes

STEAK CHILI

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium high heat, combine the oil and steak and saute for about 5 minutes, or until steak is browned. Add the onions, garlic and chile pepper and saute for another 5 minutes, or until the onions are translucent.
• Add the chili powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, tomatoes and kidney beans. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for about one hour. Remove cover and simmer for another 30 minutes, or until you've reached your desired thickness.

STUFFED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, combine the stuffing mix, water and butter or margarine. Mix well and let stand for 5 minutes. Spoon the stuffing onto the steak, leaving a 1 inch border. Add the green onions and the red bell pepper.
• Roll from the long edge of the steak and secure with wooden toothpicks. Place steak seam side down in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a separate small bowl, combine the gravy, wine OR apple juice, garlic and cheese. Mix well and pour over the steak.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour, remove from oven and let stand before slicing.

CHILI-STUFFED STEAK

Steps:

• If using a charcoal grill, start the fire.
• Prepare chili peppers by roasting them over a flame, or in the oven placed in a paper bag to steam slightly. Then rub the skin off. Cut off the big clump of seeds at the end of each chili pepper, but leave remaining seeds and ribs. Slice one pepper in quarters lengthwise and set aside to garnish steaks. Chop remaining chili peppers medium-fine and set aside. (This step may be done a day or more in advance. Refrigerate the peppers until ready to use.)
• In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of canola or olive oil. Add flour and cook briefly until it thickens to a roux. Add chicken stock, minced garlic and oregano, and cook briefly just to thicken. Then add the reserved chopped chilies, stir to mix, remove from heat and set aside.
• If using oven broiler, preheat to high.
• Prepare steaks: cut a deep horizontal pocket in each steak, being careful not to pierce sides. Rub steaks with remaining oil. Mix together black pepper, cayenne, garlic salt and citric acid crystals, if desired. Rub this dry marinade into steaks, top and bottom. Stuff each steak with some of the chili mixture, leaving aside about half a cup for garnish.
• Roast reserved pepper strips briefly on the broiler grid just long enough to give them char marks. Set aside. Place steaks on broiler or grill approximately 3 inches from the source of heat and cook, about 8 minutes to a side for medium-rare. Cut each steak into two portions and serve immediately on a heated platter, garnished with the reserved chili sauce. Drape a chili strip over the top of each steak.

CHILI-STUFFED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Heat a grill to high heat.
• Place the flank steak on a sheet of heavy duty foil and fill the pocket of the flank steak with chili and diced chilies. Secure the opening of the flank steak with a skewer. Rub the surface of the steak with a thin film of oil (about 2 teaspoons) and season with the chili powder.
• Clean the grill grate with a metal brush and rub with oil. Put the steak on the grill, cover, and grill to medium-rare, about 8 minutes, turning once halfway through. Coat the flank steak with barbecue sauce and grill another minute on each side.
• Remove skewer, and cut flank steak in thin slices against the grain and serve.

CHILI AND CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Mix together rice, chili, cheese, onion, and cumin.
• Rinse chicken thoroughly, and pat dry. Cut a slit in each breast to create a pouch that is open on one side only. Stuff each chicken breast with rice filling.
• Coat each stuffed breast with beaten egg, then coat in potato flakes and place in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 40 minutes, or until juices run clear. If the breasts dry out too quickly, cover loosely with a piece of foil.
