Cast Iron Steaks With Herb Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position, place 12-inch cast-iron skillet on rack, and heat oven to 500 degrees. Meanwhile, season steaks with salt and let sit at room temperature. Combine butter, shallot, parsley, chives, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in bowl; set aside.
• When oven reaches 500 degrees, pat steaks dry with paper towels and season with pepper. Using potholders, remove skillet from oven and place over medium-high heat; turn off oven. Being careful of hot skillet handle, add oil and heat until just smoking. Cook steaks, without moving them, until lightly browned on first side, about 2 minutes. Flip steaks and cook until lightly browned on second side, about 2 minutes.
• Flip steaks, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, flipping every 2 minutes, until steaks are well browned and meat registers 120 to 125 degrees (for medium-rare), 7 to 9 minutes. Transfer steaks to carving board, dollop 2 tablespoons herb butter on each steak, tent with aluminum foil, and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Slice steaks 1/2 inch thick and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, coriander, paprika, black pepper, onion powder, oregano and garlic. Rub the steaks on both sides with the mixture and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Grill the steaks until the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer for medium rare, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Remove the steaks from the grill, top each with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the Herb Butter and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Cut the meat from each side of the bone and slice across the grain into strips. Arrange around the bone and top with more Herb Butter for serving.
• In a large bowl, blend the butter, chives, parsley, Worcestershire, salt and pepper until completely combined. Use immediately or wrap into a cylinder in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to a month.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 200C degrees/400 degrees F/ Gas Mark 6.
• Remove some of the rosemary leaves from the stalks by running your thumb and forefinger down the length of the stalk. Sharpen the ends of the rosemary skewer to make them into little arrows, then pierce them through the beef to flavor it. Chop up the rosemary leaves and press onto the beef on both sides. Cover and allow to stand for 1/2 hour until room temperature. (Beef tastes better if cooked at room temperature.)
• Make the butter by bashing the garlic, summer savory and a pinch of salt in a pestle and mortar, then combine with the softened butter, mixing to flavor all of it. Put into buttered paper, roll into a sausage shape, and chill.
• Cook the potatoes in boiling, salted water for about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, then toss in the colander to chuff up.
• Drizzle some oil over the beef and pat onto both sides. Heat a frying pan suitable for the oven, and cook the beef for 1 minute on each side. Remove from the pan, add the potatoes with some rosemary and bashed garlic, salt and pepper, then put the beef back into the pan. Put the pan into the oven and roast the beef and potatoes for about 30 minutes.
• To serve, slice the meat and place 2 slices of the butter on top. (Freeze the remaining butter.)
• Butter: .

Steps:

• In a cast-iron frying pan over high heat, melt the butter with the olive oil until the mixture turns a light brown.
• Add the steaks and sear well, about 1 minute.
• Turn, sprinkle with sea salt, and brown on the second side for 1 minute more.
• Turn again, reduce the heat slightly, and cook, turning once, for about 6 minutes on each side for rare, or until done to your liking.
• Transfer to a platter, tent with aluminum foil, and let rest for 5 to 8 minutes before carving.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter.
• Add the shallots and saute until softened but not colored, about 30 seconds.
• Add the stock, bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the mustard, the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, and the herbs.
• Stir in any juice that has collected on the platter holding the beef.
• Season with salt and pepper; pour into a warmed bowl.
• Transfer the steaks to an attractive cutting board and sprinkle them with pepper, then carry the board to the table.
• Cut along the bone to free the meat then carve in slices diagonally across the grain. Pass the sauce at the table.
