Flank Steak With Corn And Potato Wedges Recipes

STEAK, CORN AND POTATOES WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large nonstick skillet; cover with water and season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, blot dry with paper towels and wipe out the skillet.
• Meanwhile, combine the butter, grated garlic, parsley, oregano, lemon zest and a big pinch of salt in a food processor. Pulse until smooth; set aside.
• Season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the steak and cook until well browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.
• While the steak cooks, heat the reserved nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and the potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are browned around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the corn, minced garlic and a pinch of salt; cook, undisturbed, until the corn is lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the scallions and cook, tossing, until combined. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the lemon juice.
• Divide the vegetables among plates. Slice the steak and add to the plates; top with the garlic butter.

FLANK STEAK WITH SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a medium pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes; drain.
• Meanwhile, combine the parsley, scallion, jalapeno, garlic, lemon zest and juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a mini food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
• Heat a large skillet over high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season the steak with salt and pepper. Add to the skillet and cook until browned, 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the potatoes to the same skillet; gently smash the potatoes with the back of a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Top with the parsley sauce and serve with the potatoes.

SLICED STEAK WITH ROASTED-CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Prepare grill for cooking.
• Make corn salsa:
• Heat a dry large cast-iron skillet over moderately high heat until hot, then pan-roast corn, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Cook white part of scallions in butter with garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon each cumin and chili powder, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until scallions are tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in corn, tomatoes, and jalapeños.
• Grill steak:
• Combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and sprinkle on both sides of steak. Grill, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into thickest part of meat registers 130°F, 18 to 20 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steak to a grooved cutting board and let stand 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
• While steak is standing, reheat corn mixture over moderate heat, stirring occasionally. Stir in cilantro and scallion greens.
• Spoon corn on top of sliced steak and pour over any accumulated juices.

• Meanwhile, grill corn, turning a few times, until blistered in spots and crisp-tender, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Stir together herbs, garlic, oil, and vinegar in a bowl; season chimichurri with salt and pepper. Thinly slice steak against the grain. Serve with corn, chimichurri, and baguette slices.
