Grilled Steak With Peas And Eggplant Recipes

FLANK STEAK WITH BALSAMIC ROASTED EGGPLANT

Steps:

• Put a rimmed baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 450˚ F. Combine the eggplant, red onion, 1/4 cup olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and the red pepper flakes in a large bowl and toss to coat. Spread out on the preheated pan and roast, tossing once, until browned around the edges and tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle with the balsamic vinegar; toss gently.
• Meanwhile, combine the sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons water and a pinch of salt in a food processor or mini chopper. Pulse until mostly smooth (it should be the consistency of a thick pesto; if it's too thick, add more water 1 teaspoon at a time). Adjust the seasoning, if needed.
• Season the steak all over with salt, pepper and the herbes de Provence. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat until shimmering. Add the steak and cook until well browned, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 4 to 5 minutes for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board to rest 5 minutes.
• Toss the basil with the eggplant; season with salt, if needed. Divide among plates. Slice the steak, divide among the plates and top with the sun-dried tomato mixture.

GRILLED STEAK WITH PEAS AND EGGPLANT RECIPE

Steps:

• Whisk ricotta, lemon zest, 3 Tbsp. oil, and 3/4 tsp. kosher salt in a large bowl until smooth and fluffy; set aside.
• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; oil grate. Season steaks on all sides with 1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt and 1 tsp. pepper. Grill steaks until lightly charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 120°F, 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
• While steak rests, toss eggplant with 2 Tbsp. oil; season with 1/2 tsp. kosher salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Grill eggplant, turning often, until skin is lightly charred and flesh is softened, about 5 minutes.
• Grill peas in a grill basket or on a wire rack set over grill alongside eggplant, turning often, until lightly charred and softened, about 3 minutes.
• Spread reserved ricotta on a platter. Arrange eggplant and peas over. Drizzle with oil; season with sea salt and pepper. Top with mint and chile (if using). Serve with lemon wedges alongside.
• Transfer steak to another platter. Drizzle with oil, then season with sea salt and pepper. Serve alongside vegetables.

GRILLED STEAK WITH BLACK-EYED PEAS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan over high heat. Grill the onion rings until charred, about 2 minutes per side. If the steak is too large to fit in the pan, cut it in half. Combine 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a bowl, then brush over the meat. Grill the steak until slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the turnips and cook until fork-tender, about 8 minutes. Add the black-eyed peas and tomatoes and cook until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Stir in the onion rings and vinegar and remove from the heat.
• Cut the steak into 3-inch-long sections along the grain, then thinly slice the meat against the grain. Stir the basil and chives into the black-eyed peas and serve with the steak.

GRILLED EGGPLANT CHICKPEA WRAPS

Steps:

• Heat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Grate the garlic into a medium bowl and pour the lemon juice over. Let stand about 2 minutes. Whisk in the yogurt, 2 tablespoons water and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Put the chickpeas in a large bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup of the yogurt sauce and set aside.
• Brush the eggplant slices generously with olive oil on one side and season with salt. Grill oiled-side down until charred, rotating once to char more of the surface, 2 minutes total. Brush oil on the top, sprinkle with salt, flip, and grill until charred and very tender, another 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the eggplant to a cutting board, chop roughly, and then stir gently into the chickpea mixture. Taste the mixture and season with salt, if needed.
• To make the wraps, spread 2 tablespoons of the yogurt sauce on one of the tortillas. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the oregano. Form about 1 scant cup of the chickpea mixture into a log across the wrap about 3 inches from the bottom, leaving a 1-inch border on each side. Top with some chopped tomatoes and a little salt, then add some cucumber and lettuce. Fold the sides of the wrap over the ends of the chickpea mixture, then roll up tightly from the bottom. Repeat for the remaining tortillas and filling. Cut each in half on the bias, and serve.

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH SMOKY EGGPLANT CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill; when the coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 3 to 4 seconds) you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium-high.)
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the ginger and garlic and sauté, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute. Add the coriander, cumin, mustard, chile powder and cinnamon and cook, stirring, until the spices just begin to darken and you can smell their aromas strongly, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
• When the spice mixture has cooled slightly, sprinkle the steak generously with salt, then rub all over with the mixture, pressing gently so it adheres.
• Put the steak on the grill directly over the heat and cook for 4 to 5 minutes a side for medium-rare. Remove from heat, slice thinly against the grain and serve, accompanied by smoky eggplant chutney if desired.

GRILLED STEAK WITH EGGPLANT CAPONATA RECIPE - (4.8/5)

Steps:

• Preheat a charcoal grill. Place eggplant in a colander and sprinkle liberally with salt. Arrange steaks on a platter. Brush steaks with olive oil and season generously all over with salt. Set steaks aside to rest. Make Caponata: Heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and sauté until just golden, 1 minute. Add onions and bay leaf, and sauté until onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add eggplant to pan in a single layer and sauté until browned and tender, about 15 minutes. If eggplant doesn't fit easily in one layer, cook in batches. Stir olives, currants, pine nuts and balsamic vinegar into pan. Sauté until vinegar cooks off and caponata is almost dry, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. Cook Steaks: Once charcoals are white-hot, lay steaks onto grate directly over heat and grill until medium rare, 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer meat to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes before slicing across the grain. To Serve: Divide caponata among 4 plates and place steak on top or alongside. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil.
