Rib Eye Steaks With Arugula Oil Recipes

SEARED RIB-EYE STEAK WITH ARUGULA AND ROASTED PEPPER SALAD

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season steaks with salt and pepper. When pan starts to smoke, carefully add steaks. Allow the steaks to cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on 1 side, without moving or piercing the meat. This will help create a good, crusty sear. When steaks are brown, flip and sear the other side for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove meat to a large plate and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
• Decoratively line a large platter with arugula. Tear the roasted peppers into large pieces and scatter over the arugula. In a small bowl, whisk in the remaining olive oil, balsamic vinegar and any meat juices that may have collected on the plate from the steaks. Season with salt and pepper.
• Slice the steaks across the grain and on a bias into 1 1/2-inch thick pieces. Lay the slices on top of the salad and drizzle with dressing. Using a vegetable peeler, shave about Parmesan over the dish.

SEARED RIB-EYE STEAK WITH ARUGULA AND ROASTED PEPPER SALAD

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season steaks with salt and pepper. When pan starts to smoke, carefully add steaks. Allow the steaks to cook for about 6 minutes on one side, without moving or piercing the meat. This will help create a good, crusty sear. If steak starts to brown too quickly, reduce heat to medium. When steaks are brown, flip and sear the other side for 6 minutes for medium rare. Cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium well. Remove meat to a large plate and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
• Decoratively line a large platter with arugula. Tear the roasted peppers into large pieces and scatter over the arugula. In a small bowl, whisk the 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar and any meat juices that may have collected on the plate from the steaks. Season with salt and pepper.
• Slice the steaks across the grain and on a bias into 1 1/2-inch thick pieces. Lay the slices on top of the salad and drizzle with dressing. Using a vegetable peeler, shave about 8 pieces of Parmesan over the dish.

TUSCAN RIB-EYE STEAK

Steps:

• For the marinade: The day before you plan on cooking your steak, place the rib-eye in a resealable baggie along with the olive oil, rosemary, thyme and garlic. Move the herbs and garlic around in the bag to coat the steak with all the flavors. Refrigerate overnight.
• For the steak: Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the steak evenly with 1 teaspoon of the salt. Place the steak on the grill pan and sear for 5 minutes without moving the steak. Flip the steak and repeat on the other side. Remove the steak to a baking sheet and place in the oven for 10 minutes for medium doneness. Allow the steak to rest for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix together the lemon zest, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons olive oil, rosemary, thyme, 1/8 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper. Set aside.
• Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon olive oil and slide in the egg, being careful not to break the yolk. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low and gently cook the egg until the white is just set and the yolk is still soft, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer the rested steak to a serving plate. Scatter the arugula over the steak and drizzle 1 teaspoon of the herb oil. Lay the egg, sunny-side up, over the top. Drizzle with the remaining herb oil and season with a few grinds of black pepper.

PAN-SEARED RIB-EYE

Steps:

• Remove the steaks from the fridge at least 15 minutes before cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, garlic powder, pimenton, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt. Drizzle the steaks with olive oil to lightly coat. Coat the steaks with the spice rub on all sides.
• Heat a large cast-iron pan over high heat. Add the butter and let melt. Add the steaks and cook, turning to cook on all sides, until richly browned, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, add the thyme bundle and garlic cut-side down. If the pan seems dry, add more butter. Tilt the pan to spoon the butter over the steaks as they cook. Once the steaks are browned and basted on all sides, place them on a sheet pan fitted with a wire rack. Transfer to the oven and cook through to desired temperature. I like my steaks medium rare! Allow the steaks to rest and the juices to settle at least 10 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, lower the heat to medium-low under the pan and add the onion rings. Allow to char on both sides, flipping once after about 1 minute. Set aside.
• To a medium bowl, add the arugula, lemon juice and olive oil to lightly coat. Season with salt and pepper. Add the charred onion and toss.
• Remove the meat from the bone and slice into 1- to 3/4-inch slices. Lay the steak on a serving platter with the bone on top and garnish with the arugula onion salad. Serve!

RIB-EYE STEAKS WITH ARUGULA OIL

Steps:

• To quick roast and peel peppers:
• Broiler method:
• Preheat broiler. Quarter peppers lengthwise, discarding stems, seeds, and ribs. Put peppers, skin side up, on a rack of a broiler pan and broil about 2 inches from heat until skins are blistered and charred, 8 to 12 minutes.
• Transfer peppers to a bowl and let stand, covered, until cool enough to handle. Peel peppers. (Wear rubber gloves when handling chilies.)
• Gas stove method:
• Lay peppers on their sides on racks of burners (preferably 1 to a burner) and turn flame on high. Char peppers, turning them with tongs, until skins are blackened, 6 to 8 minutes. (If peppers are small, as are chilies, spear through stem end with a long handled fork and rest on burner rack.)
• Transfer peppers to a bowl and let stand, covered, until cool enough to handle. Peel peppers. Cut off tops and discard seeds and ribs. (Wear rubber gloves when handling chilies.)
• Make marinade:
• In a shallow baking dish just large enough to hold steaks in one layer stir together oil, rosemary, lemon, and pepper.
• Add steaks to marinade, turning to coat well. Marinate steaks, covered, and chilled, turning occasionally, 1 day.
• Make arugula oil:
• In a blender or food processor blend arugula, oil, and salt and pepper to taste 30 seconds. Chill mixture, covered, 1 1/2 hours. Bring mixture to room temperature and pour through a fine sieve into a bowl. Arugula oil may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
• Prepare grill.
• Remove steaks from marinade, letting excess drip off, and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 4 to 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. (Alternatively, steaks may be grilled in batches in a hot well seasoned ridged grill pan.) Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes.
• Toss roasted peppers with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste and cut steaks into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• Divide arugula leaves among 4 plates and top with steak and roasted peppers. Drizzle each serving with arugula oil and salt and pepper to taste and serve with potatoes.

RIB-EYE STEAK WITH BLACK OLIVE VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• For the Rib-eye: Preheat your grill pan on medium high heat. Coat the beef with olive oil and sprinkle with the Herbs de Provence, salt, and pepper. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes a side until the meat is medium-rare, remove from heat, and allow to rest.
• For the Black Olive Vinaigrette: Combine the olives, red wine vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender and blend until mixed. In a small pitcher combine the olive oil and vegetable oil. Drizzle the oil into the blender with the machine running. Transfer the vinaigrette to a serving dish. Stir in the parsley and serve with the rib-eye.
