Steak | Smashed Potatoes & Brocolini
STEAK
Grill:
1. Heat your grill to high. Brush the steaks on both sides with oil and season with steak seasoning mix or your own mix.
2. Place the steaks on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the steaks over and continue to grill 3 to 5 minutes for medium-rare (an internal temperature of 135 degrees F), 5 to 7 minutes for medium (140 degrees F) or 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well (150 degrees F).
3. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board or platter, tent loosely with foil and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
Stove:
1. Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Season the steaks generously with steak seasoning mix or your own mix.
2. Turn on your exhaust fan and heat a heavy pan over medium-high heat until it’s VERY hot. The best pans for pan-searing are stainless steel or cast-iron since they can withstand high temperatures.
3.Carefully set the steak in the pan, releasing it away from you so the oil doesn’t splatter in your direction (It should sizzle).
4.Flip the steaks when they release easily and the bottom is a deep-brown color (usually about 3 minutes). Continue to cook the steaks for another 3 to 4 minutes on the bottom side for rare or medium-rare.
5. During the last minute of cooking, add 1 tablespoon of butter (and a few sprigs of fresh thyme if you have any) to the pan with the steaks.
6. If serving steaks unsliced, transfer them to plates and serve hot. If you plan to slice the steaks, transfer them to a cutting board and let rest, covered with aluminum foil, for 5 to 10 minutes; then slice thinly against the grain.
Smashed Potatoes
1. Bring a pot of water to the boil, add 1 tbsp salt. Cook potatoes until soft
2.Drain the potatoes and let them dry for 5 minutes or so.
3.Place on the tray then use a large fork or potato masher to squish them, keeping them in one piece. Thin = crisper. Thicker = fluffier insides
4.Drizzle with butter, then olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper
5. Bake in 390 degrees fahrenheight oven for 45 minutes (small potatoes) to 55 minutes (medium) or until deep golden and crispy. Do not flip!
Broccolini
- First, trim the broccolini. Cut off and discard the dried ends of the stems. If the stalks are very thick, halve them lengthwise. Leave any smaller, slender stalks intact.
- Next, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and onion mix and cook for 30 seconds to infuse the oil with flavor.
- Then, add the broccolini and broccolini season mix. Cook, tossing occasionally, for 2 minutes.
- At this point, you’ll need to create steam in the pan to help the broccolini stems soften. Add a couple tablespoons of water and cover the pan. If you don’t have a lid that fits your pan, a large baking sheet will do the trick.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, covered, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the veggies are tender and bright green.
- Serve and Enjoy!
