Salsa Steak For One Recipes

STEAK AND SALSA

Steps:

• Place the steaks in a single layer in a large glass or ceramic baking dish. Whisk the remaining ingredients together in a bowl and pour over the steaks, making sure both sides are coated. Cover loosely and refrigerate for 12, or preferably 24 hours, turning every 2 or 3 hours.
• 1 1 /2 hours before serving, make the sauce: combine the tomatoes, vinegar, cilantro, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a blender. Blend for 1 minute, or until smooth and emulsified. Transfer to a glass or ceramic bowl, add the onion and green pepper, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit at room temperature.
• Half an hour before serving, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature.
• When ready to serve, preheat a grill or griddle pan to high heat. Shake the steaks dry and grill them for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, or until done to your liking. Let the steaks rest, loosely covered with foil, for 5 to 7 minutes. Carve the meat across the grain into 1 inch slices and serve with white rice and Molho Campanha.

GRILLED CHILE FLANK STEAK WITH SALSA

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the orange juice, chile powder, oregano and 1 teaspoon salt. Place steak in a large glass or ceramic container and coat all over with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
• To make the salsa, light a grill, keeping a small area unlit for indirect heat. Grill pineapple over direct heat until charred on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes a side.
• Toss the tomatillos, onion, jalapeños and garlic with olive oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Place the garlic over indirect heat, cut-side down, and grill until charred and somewhat tender, 6 to 10 minutes (do not turn). Grill the onion, cut-side down over direct heat, until well charred, 3 to 5 minutes (do not turn). Grill the tomatillos and jalapeños over direct heat on both sides until they are tender and blistered, 1 to 3 minutes a side.
• When cool enough to handle, peel onion and coarsely chop it and tomatillos and jalapeños. Squeeze the garlic from the peel and mash with the flat side of a knife, then chop. In a bowl, combine vegetables, half the garlic and the pineapple. Toss in cilantro and season with a squeeze of lime juice and salt and pepper to taste.
• Grill steak until done to taste, about 2 to 4 minutes a side. Let rest for 10 minutes, then smear the remaining garlic on top. Carve steak against the grain and serve with the salsa and lime wedges.

STEAK RANCHERO

Steps:

• Slice the flank steak into thin strips across the grain.
• Combine the cumin, sugar, salt, oregano, chili powder, and pepper in a small bowl.
• Toss the steak strips with the spices until they get completely coated. Let the steak sit for at least 20 minutes or place in the fridge overnight.
• Heat some oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until it gets smoking hot. When the oil is hot, work in batches to cook the steak strips. Add the steak strips in a single layer and let them sear for 1 to 2 minutes without moving them. When they get a caramelized brown color, give them a stir then transfer to a plate. Repeat with the rest of the steak strips then transfer them to a plate. You don't need to cook the steak all the way, just get it browned. The steak strips will cook more later in the recipe.
• Don't clean the skillet out. The pieces left behind from cooking the steak will loosen up when you cook the vegetables.
• Add the onions to the hot skillet and cook, stirring frequently until softened. Add garlic, jalapeño peppers, chipotle, and adobo sauce. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes stirring, until the peppers and garlic are fragrant.
• Pour in the wine or broth to deglaze the pan. Scrape up any cooked-on bits from the bottom of the skillet.
• Return the steak strips to the skillet and add the tomatoes. Give everything a stir and reduce the heat to medium. Cover with a lid and simmer for 15 to 25 minutes until the steak gets tender and the tomatoes break down into a juicy sauce.
• Remove the lid and simmer for 5 minutes to reduce the sauce.
• Serve with rice or roasted potatoes.
