Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat 6-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Cut steaks into 1/4-in. slices; serve with sauce.

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine soy sauce, ginger, honey, sesame oil, garlic clove, and black pepper. Process until smooth. Pour mixture into a plastic bag, add flank steak and shake to coat. Refrigerate 15 minutes and up to 24 hours.

• Remove any loose leaves from the exterior of the cabbage and set it on its stem end. Cut a thin piece off one side of the cabbage to make it flat; then slice a thin piece off the other side of the cabbage. (Reserve the pieces for another use.) Slice the cabbage vertically to make 4 thick steaks, each about 3/4- to 1-inch thick.
• Lay the steaks on a baking sheet and stick a skewer horizontally through any that are not holding together. Brush both sides of the steaks with olive oil and sprinkle with the lime zest, ancho powder and 1 teaspoon salt.
• Grill the steaks, covered, moving them occasionally so they cook evenly, until charred and crisp-tender, 6 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving platter, brush the tops lightly with olive oil and remove any skewers you used.
• Coarsely chop the remaining 1/2 cup cilantro and 1/2 cup parsley. Drizzle about half of the sauce over the cabbage. Sprinkle with the herbs and red onion and serve the remaining sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Place a double layered piece of heavy-duty foil on a tray or cutting board; fold and gather edge to form a rim. Toss the green beans and tomatoes on foil with 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat a grill to medium. Lightly oil the grill grates and season the steak with salt and pepper. Slide the foil tray onto the grill; cook, tossing occasionally, until the beans char slightly and cook through, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the steaks to the grill; cook until desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove steaks to cutting board to rest 5 minutes. Slice, and serve steak and the vegetables with the Chimichurri Sauce.
• Chimichurri Sauce:
• Combine the garlic, vinegar, herbs, olive oil and water in small food processor; pulse until herbs are coarsely chopped. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt. Transfer to a blender and add remaining sauce ingredients, then blend until smooth.
• Grill steak:
• Stir together cumin, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Pat steak dry, then rub both sides of pieces with cumin mixture.
• Heat an oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over high heat until hot but not smoking, then grill steak in 2 batches, turning over occasionally, about 2 minutes per batch for thin pieces or 6 to 8 minutes per batch for thicker pieces (medium-rare). Serve steak drizzled with sauce.

Steps:

• Stir together 3/4 cup soy sauce, Sherry, sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons garlic, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and red pepper flakes in a 13- by 9- by 2-inch baking dish until sugar is dissolved, then add steaks, turning to coat. Marinate steaks, turning once, 1 hour.
• Prepare grill for cooking.
• Stir together cilantro, vegetable oil, lime juice, remaining 3 tablespoons soy sauce, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic, remaining 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil, and chile if using.
• When fire is medium-hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack 3 to 4 seconds), grill steaks on a lightly oiled rack 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Let steaks stand on a cutting board 5 minutes, then top with some sauce and cut crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices.
• Serve remaining sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Brush both sides of swordfish with olive oil.
• Cook on the preheated grill until fish flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 12 minutes, brushing with olive oil and turning once halfway through.
• Meanwhile, combine butter, cilantro, jalapeno, lime zest, and lime juice in a small bowl. Serve butter mixture with swordfish.

Steps:

• Combine lime juice, cilantro, water, jalapeño pepper, garlic and cumin and pour into a large zip-top plastic bag.
• Add steaks, seal and shake bag to coat meat.
• Let marinate in refrigerator 1-2 hours,shaking bag every now and then.
• Toss marinade when ready to grill steaks.
• Grill steaks over medium heated (preheated) until cooked to your liking, turning once (about 15-20 minutes for rare to medium).
• Once cooked, season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Carve steaks into thin slices and serve.

Steps:

• To make meat: Carefully trim steak of any fat.
• Mix together chipotle, garlic, cilantro, oil, wine and soy sauce; pour over steak. Cover and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours or overnight, turning occasionally. I always marinate overnight for the best flavor. To make sauce: In food processor, briefly blend honey, chipotle, vinegar, mustard, lime juice, garlic, cumin, allspice, cilantro and salt. Set aside. Correct seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Prepare grill and hot coals according to manufacturer's instructions. Remove steak from marinade and discard marinade. Pat steak dry and grill over hot coals to desired doneness, approximately 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let steak rest 3 minutes before slicing.
• To serve, slice meat thinly across grain on angle and arrange on warm plates with grilled sweet onions and peppers. Drizzle sauce over or serve on side.
• NOTES : This is a great outdoor dish because it doesn't involve any stove-top or oven cooking. Any leftover meat and sauce can be turned into a filling for tacos or burritos.

Steps:

• Mix the butter, chilies, cilantro and tequila in a bowl to blend.
• Lay a sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface. Spoon the chili butter over the center of the plastic wrap. Roll the chili butter into a cylinder. Refrigerate at least 2 to 3 hours or overnight.
• Cut the chili butter log crosswise into 8 slices.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt and black pepper.
• Prepare a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. (I used a cast iron skillet with one tablespoon of olive oil and one tablespoon of butter.).
• Grill the steaks for five minutes. Turn the steaks over and top each with 2 of the chili butter slices. Continue grilling for 5 minutes for medium-rare doneness, or until the butter begins to melt.
• Transfer the steaks to plates and serve.

Steps:

• Select steaks approx 1 inch thick. Allow steaks to come to room temperature so they cook quickly and evenly.
• Place slightly softened butter, garlic, cilantro, paprika and lemon juice in food processor, and pulse until well blended. Refrigerate resulting herb butter.
• Salt and pepper steaks.
• Grill steaks uncovered on hot bbq for 5 minutes on one side. Don't worry if it flames a bit.
• After 5 minutes, turn steaks, place lid on BBQ, close top vent half-way and cook about 8 minutes more. During this period, be sure to turn steaks every two minutes for even cooking. This should give you medium-rare to medium doneness.
• Remove steaks from grill.
• Place large dollops of herb butter on steaks, and allow steaks to rest 5 minutes on plate, covered, so juices get re-absorbed. This 5 minutes is a great time to use the BBQ to grill some veggies. I make grilled zucchini, yellow squash and portabella mushrooms. After grilling veggies, add some of the herb butter to them.
• For best flavor, use a charcoal grill with mesquite natural charcoal, but you can use a gas grill.

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In food processor, place cilantro, onion, garlic, chile, lime juice, oil and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Cover; process until finely chopped. Blend in 2 to 3 teaspoons water to make sauce thinner, if desired. Transfer to small bowl; set aside until serving time.
• In small bowl, combine cumin, pepper and remaining 1 teaspoon salt; rub evenly over steaks. Place steaks on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 7 to 10 minutes for medium-rare (145°F), turning once halfway through cooking.
• Serve 2 tablespoons chimichurri over each steak.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; oil grate. Remove and discard seeds from 1 chile. Purée both chiles, garlic, cilantro, yogurt, oil, honey, and 1/4 cup water in a blender until smooth; season well with salt. Transfer half of sauce to a small bowl and set aside for serving.
• Season salmon steaks lightly with salt. Grill, turning once or twice, until flesh is starting to turn opaque, about 4 minutes. Continue to grill, turning often and basting with remaining sauce, until opaque all the way through, about 4 minutes longer. Serve with reserved sauce alongside.
