Black Diamond Steak Marinade Recipes

Steps:

• Mix marinade ingredients together.
• Score steak on both sides.
• Marinate steaks for 8 to 10 hours.
• Grill 6 to 8 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients except steaks in a bowl and mix well. (Marinade can be kept refrigerated for 7 to 10 days.).
• Pierce the steak all over on both sides with a sharp fork or skewer. Place it in a zipper-lock bag or shallow glass baking dish. Pour over the marinade and refrigerate overnight (cover if using a dish). Shake and turn the bag or turn the meat occasionally. Let it come to room temperature before cooking.
• TO GRILL THE STEAK:.
• Pat the steak dry. Grill the steak over medium-hot coals in a covered or uncovered barbecue or directly over the flames of a gas grill. Flank steak is best cooked medium-rare and should never be cooked more than medium; the internal temperature should be 130 to 135 degrees F. This should take roughly 4 to 5 minutes per side on a standard grill.
• Allow the steak to rest for 5 minutes, covered loosely with aluminum foil, before carving into 1/4-inch-thick diagonal slices across the grain.

Steps:

• For the mushrooms: Slice the mushrooms in half lengthwise. On the flat side, carefully score each mushroom with a paring knife one way and then the other creating a diamond crosshatch pattern without cutting all the way through the mushrooms. Stir together the olive oil, balsamic, soy sauce, thyme, garlic, brown sugar and chili garlic paste in a large bowl. Toss the mushrooms in the marinade and set aside.
• For the wine sauce: Heat the oil over medium heat in a small saucepan. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme sprigs and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add the wine, broth and brown sugar. Increase the heat to medium-high and let reduce until about 1/3 cup liquid remains in the pan, about 10 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low, add the butter and swirl it into the sauce until just melted; remove from the heat and add the lemon juice and the 1 tablespoon chopped chives. Season with salt and pepper. Discard the thyme sprigs.
• Add the 2 tablespoons butter to a large skillet and place over medium-high heat. Once melted and the pan is hot, add half the mushrooms, crosshatch-side down. Cook, untouched, until the mushrooms are deeply browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side until browned and the mushrooms just become tender, 2 to 3 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms.
• Sprinkle the mushrooms with salt and pepper. Pour half of the sauce over the bottom of a serving platter. Top with the mushrooms, scored-side up, and drizzle with the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with more chopped chives.
