Irish Whiskey Flat Iron Steak Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill on medium-high heat. Whisk together the whiskey, brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the oil and the garlic. Add the steaks, turn a few times to coat with the marinade and let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, quarter each potato lengthwise to form wedges and put in a medium pot. Cover with cold water to cover by 1-inch and add salt until the water tastes like sea water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until tender (but not falling apart), about 15 minutes. Drain well. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Remove the steaks from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Pour the marinade into a small pot and bring to a boil. Boil for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly reduced, making sure the sugar does not burn, to make a glaze and sauce for the steak.
• Grill the steaks until an internal temperature on an instant-read thermometer reads about 130 degrees F, 3 to 4 minutes per side, brushing with the boiled marinade several times in the last few minutes of grilling time. (If you are cooking the filet mignon steaks, you will need to increase this time to 8 to 10 minutes per side to account for the thicker cut). Transfer to a large plate to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. While the steaks grill, add the potatoes to the grill and grill until well-marked and crispy, turning to grill all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer the potato wedges to a bowl.
• Toss the grilled potatoes with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, chives, vinegar and salt and pepper to taste. Remove the garlic cloves from the remaining glaze and serve drizzled over the steaks with the potatoes on the side.

Steps:

• Place the steaks into a marinating dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, beef aromatics, bay leaf, 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs of own choice, 1 glass of Irish whiskey and 3 to 4 ounces of melted butter and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours
• Remove steak from marinade and place on hot grill or pan, sealing both sides of the steak and cook to required taste.
• To make the Gaelic sauce use remaining marinade as a base and place in hot pan. Add 1 finely chopped large onion and allow to simmer until onions tender. Then add 3 large finely chopped fresh tomatoes, 3 tablespoons of tomato puree, sprinkling of herbs and allow to simmer for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring gently. Now add 1 cup of fresh cream and stir gently with wooden spoon for 3 minutes. Then add the steaks to the sauce and flambe with 1 glass of remaining whiskey.
• Remove steaks to 2 large platters, serve sauce generously from pan to platters and sprinkle with fresh parsley and selection of fresh vegetables of choice.

Steps:

• Trim away any excess fat from the steak or steaks.
• Press the crushed peppercorns and garlic onto both sides of the steak and let it stand at room temperature 1 hour.
• Heat a heavy iron skillet over high heat.
• Grease the skillet with a piece of the fat trimmed from the steak.
• Toss in about half the salt.
• Sear the steaks quickly on one side, then lift out; add the remaining salt to the skillet, turn the steak and sear the other side.
• Reduce the heat to moderate and cook the steaks as desired.
• Remove to a warmed platter.
• Make the sauce.
• Pour off fat from the skillet.
• Melt the butter in the skillet over low heat.
• Add the onion and garlic and cook slowly until soft, stirring often.
• Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Pour over the steak or steaks and serve.

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil, whiskey, soy sauce, green onion, garlic, pepper, parsley, thyme, and rosemary in a large, sealable plastic bag; seal and shake to mix. Add the steaks to the marinade. Seal the bag, squeezing out as much air as possible. Refrigerate at least 1 hour. Remove steaks from marinade; discard the marinade. Allow the steaks to come to room temperature before cooking.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook the steaks until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, 6 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Cover the meat with two layers of aluminum foil and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat butter and oil.
• Add the steaks and cook 2 - 3 minutes on each side (for rare). Transfer to a warm plate and cover.
• Add garlic, shallot and mushrooms to the pan and cook 2 - 3 minutes until soft, but not browned.
• Stir in the honey and mustard and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the whiskey and stock or broth and cook for 3 - 4 minutes or until reduced in half.
• Whisk in cream and cook 2 - 3 minutes more or until thickened.
• Season with salt and pepper.
