Grilled Skirt Steak With Rosemary Roasted Potatoes Worcestershire Aioli Bordeaux Recipes

GRILLED STEAK WITH ROSEMARY AND GARLIC

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the rosemary leaves, garlic, crushed red pepper and enough olive oil to make a loose paste. Slather the steaks with the mixture and sprinkle them generously with salt. Let the steaks hang out outside the fridge to come to room temperature.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high. Use a wire grill brush to loosen any crud and soot. Wipe the grill down with an oiled side towel to pick up any bits of loosened crud.
• Put the steaks on a hot spot on the grill to get a great sear and really create BROWN FOOD! Once both sides of the steak are really nice and brown, move the steak to a cooler part of the grill to allow the steaks to cook to desired temperature. About 5 to 6 minutes on each side for medium-rare.
• Remove the steaks from the grill and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Cut the steak off the bone, slice across the grain and divide among 4 serving plates. Drizzle the steak with a little big fat finishing oil and a sprinkling of sea salt.

SKIRT STEAK WITH ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Pick the leaves off the rosemary sprig and toss them with the carrots, parsnips, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a shallow baking dish. Roast, stirring once, until the vegetables are tender and golden brown, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the garlic, chopped rosemary, the remaining 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over the steaks.
• When the vegetables are halfway done (after about 12 minutes), heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Working in batches if necessary, sear the steaks, 2 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the roasted vegetables and drizzle with the pan juices.

GRILLED STEAK WITH BLUE CHEESE POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat grill to high. Stir garlic, rosemary, Worcestershire sauce, and oil in a nonreactive dish; season with pepper. Place steak in dish, cutting to fit if necessary; coat both sides with marinade. Marinate, turning once, 15 minutes, or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
• Cover potatoes with cold water in a medium saucepan; add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer until just tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; let cool slightly. Slice potatoes in half, and brush lightly with oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Grill steak, turning once, to desired doneness, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Set aside. Meanwhile, grill potatoes, turning once, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Immediately sprinkle with cheese. Thinly slice steak against grain. Divide steak and potatoes among 4 plates. Serve, garnished with rosemary sprigs.

CHURRASCO (GRILLED MARINATED SKIRT STEAK)

Steps:

• Pat the steaks dry and place in a large zip-top bag.
• Combine the garlic, oregano, vinegar, olive oil, adobo seasoning and salt in the bowl of a pilón or mortar and pestle, or a small food processor. Grind into a thin paste, then pour the marinade over the steak. Zip the bag then shake well to coat the meat, rubbing in gently as needed. Let rest on the counter for 10 to 20 minutes, or refrigerate overnight if you have time. Be sure to let the steak come to room temperature before grilling.
• If using a charcoal grill, start by building a fire with hardwood and kindling, then adding lump hardwood charcoal once the fire is kicking. Allow the fire to mellow. If using a gas grill, set the temperature to 500 degrees.
• Meanwhile, make the wasakaka: Combine the lime juice, parsley, cilantro, oregano, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl and whisk to incorporate. If you'd like a creamier sauce, blend in a small food processor or blender. (Wasakaka will keep for 3 or 4 days in a sealed jar in the refrigerator.)
• Once the grill is ready, remove skirt steak from the bag and shake off excess marinade. Place on the grill and sear for 1 to 3 minutes. Using tongs, pull up the corner to ensure the steak has a good dark char, bordering on burned in places, before flipping, then cook for 1 more minute for rare, 2 minutes for medium-rare. Be careful not to overcook or steak will be tough.
• Remove steak from grill and let rest for 5 to 7 minutes. Slice into strips and pour over wasakaka, or serve sauce on the side. Taste and sprinkle with additional salt, if desired.
