Flank Steak Paprika Recipes

FLANK STEAK WITH SMOKED PAPRIKA RUB

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients and rub all over steaks.
• Cover and put in refrigerator for about 45 minutes.
• In the meantime get your grill going. Bank your fire on one side.
• Sear over high heat first, then move to cooler side of grill and cook for 3 minutes each side. Longer for more well done.
• Remove from grill and cover for a few minutes with foil.
• Remove foil and cut across the grain and serve.
• Corn on the cob and zucchini go well with this.

BROILED PAPRIKA FLANK STEAK WITH TOASTED SPICED NUTS

Steps:

• Stir together the mayonnaise and paprika in a small bowl until smooth. Sprinkle the flank steak with salt and pepper, then evenly spread the paprika mayonnaise on top of the meat. Set aside for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast the coriander and cumin seeds in a medium skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool, then pulse in a spice grinder until finely ground and return to the bowl. Toast the cashews and pistachios in the same skillet, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the nuts to the bowl with the toasted ground spices; add the red pepper flakes and toss to combine. Toast the sesame seeds in the same skillet until fragrant and browned, about 3 minutes. Add to the spiced nuts.
• Position a rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler to high.
• Set a broiler pan or a heavy baking sheet under the heating element and preheat for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the hot pan and spray with cooking spray or brush lightly with oil and quickly put the meat on the pan. Broil until a thermometer inserted sideways into the thickest part of the meat reads 130 to 135 degrees F and the paprika-mayonnaise coating is deep brown and bubbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the broiler and let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• Slice the meat thinly against the grain. Stir the mint into the spiced nuts and scatter some nut mixture on top of the steak. Put the rest of the spiced nut mixture in a bowl to serve on the side for sprinkling. Garnish the steak with additional mint leaves if using.

PAPRIKA FLANK STEAK WITH WATERCRESS

Steps:

• Preheat the griddle pan to medium-high.
• Coat the steak in oil and rub with the paprika, garlic, onion and some salt and pepper. Dress the scallions with a little oil as well, and season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the steak about 12 minutes, turning once. While the meat rests, grill the scallions until marked.
• Dress the cress with the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and then season with salt and pepper.
• Slice the steak against the grain, 1/4-inch thick. Fan the steak on a plate and top with the grilled scallions, cress and the crumbled blue cheese.
