New York Steak With Madagascar Pepper And Port Wine Recipes

Steps:

• To make Port-Wine Mushroom Sauce combine mushrooms and flour in a bowl and toss well.
• Combine wine, shallots, and vinegar in a medium skillet.
• Bring to a boil and cook until thick.
• Reduce heat to medium.
• Add broth, Worcestershire, tomato paste, and rosemary and cook 1 minute.
• Add mushroom mixture and cook 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Stir in mustard.
• Keep sauce warm.
• Sprinkle steaks with peppercorns and salt.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add steaks and cook 3 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness.
• Serve Port-Wine Mushroom Sauce over steaks.

Steps:

• Add the oil to a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Heat until the oil is very hot.
• Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Add the steaks to the skillet and sear the steaks on each side for 4 minutes for medium. Remove the steaks to a plate and loosely cover with foil.
• Lower the heat to medium and add the mushrooms, shallot, and thyme to the pan and saute until the mushrooms begin to brown and soften, about 5 minutes. You may need to add a bit more oil to the pan. Add the red wine and scrap the bottom of the pan to get the browned bits.
• Let the liquid reduce by half, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and swirl in 3 tablespoons butter to finish the sauce. Serve the steak with mushroom red wine sauce drizzled over the top.

Steps:

• Generously sprinkle salt and pepper all over steaks, then let steaks rest uncovered for 15 minutes at room temperature. Meanwhile, mince the shallots.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter and the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add steaks and cook until done to taste, about 3 to 4 minutes per side for rare and a little longer for medium-rare or medium. (Bone-in steaks take a few minutes longer to cook through than boneless.) If the pan begins to smoke or burn, lower the heat. Transfer steaks to a plate to rest while you prepare the sauce.
• Add shallots to the skillet and cook over medium heat until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add brandy to the skillet and use a long-handled match or igniter to set the brandy on fire. (Stand back when you do this.) Let flames die out, then add red wine and cook until reduced and syrupy, 2 to 4 minutes. Add stock and boil until reduced and thickened, 3 to 4 minutes longer.
• Remove pan from heat and whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the chives. Serve steaks and sauce immediately with watercress.

Steps:

• Heat half the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season 2 steaks with 3/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Cook until deep golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reaches 130 degrees, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter, and tent with foil. Repeat with remaining oil and steaks. Let steaks rest in a 250 degree oven.
• Reduce heat to medium, and add wine to skillet. Cook until almost completely reduced, about 5 minutes. Add beef stock, and cook until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 2 1/2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and whisk in butter (1 piece at a time) and mustard. Stir in any juices from the platter, and season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over steaks.

Steps:

• Oil and preheat the grill.
• Season both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper. Place steaks on grill at a 45 degree angle to establish nice grill marks. Cook steaks to desired doneness or until the internal temperature reaches 125 to 130 degrees F for medium-rare, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove the steaks from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes. Spoon the Smokey Bacon Port Sauce over the meat. Serve with your favorite side dishes.
• Render the bacon in a saucepan over medium-low heat until golden brown. Once bacon has been rendered, strain off the excess fat and put the pan back on the fire. Deglaze the pan with 2/3 of the Port wine and scrape the bottom of the saucepan to get all the bacon off the bottom and sides of the pan. Turn up the heat to medium and the alcohol should ignite. Reduce the wine by 1/4 and skim off any impurities that rise to the surface. Next, add the rest of the wine, the diced shallots, and peppercorns. Reduce by 1/3. In a small bowl, make a slurry with corn starch and water. Whisk the slurry into the pan until the sauce is slightly thick. Adjust seasoning with salt.

Steps:

• With the back of a heavy saucepan, crush the white and black peppercorns. Remove most of fat from the steaks. Season with salt and crushed peppercorns.
• Heat a large heavy saucepan. Pour in oil, and over high heat, cook the steaks 4 minutes on each side for medium rare. Transfer meat to a warm platter and reserve.
• Carefully discard grease in pan and deglaze with Port. Simmer until reduced by half. Add cream and veal stock and continue to reduce until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Whisk in butter, 1 small piece at a time. Season, to taste, with salt.
• Place 1 steak on each warmed serving plate. Spoon sauce over steaks and sprinkle green peppercorns equally over each portion.

Steps:

• Rinse flank steak and pat dry. Trim fat (if any) off steak. Cut into 3 pieces lengthwise. Slice across grain into 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces.
• Marinate meat in soy sauce, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, sugar and 4 tablespoons oil. Set aside 1 hour.
• Soak black beans in 1 cup cold water 10 to 15 minutes. Chop garlic finely. Drain beans and add garlic. Chop beans and garlic together more finely. Set aside.
• Heat 3 to 4 tablespoons oil in wok or large skillet until smoking hot. Shake wok so oil coats entire surface.
• Add 1 tablespoon salt to oil. Add steak and stir-fry quickly on high flame 3 to 4 minutes, until pink. Remove meat to plate.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil to wok. Add bean and garlic mixture; stir-fry 30 seconds over low flame.
• Increase flame to high. Add peppers and stir-fry green peppers 1 minute. Add remaining 1 cup water and 1 tablespoon cornstarch, stirring mixture until blended. Lower flame to medium; let peppers cook until water and cornstarch have thickened.
• Add tomatoes and mix with peppers. Cover and cook 10 to 15 minutes, being careful not to let tomatoes turn too soft. Add salt to taste.
• Uncover, return steak to wok and mix thoroughly. Stir-fry over high flame 1 to 2 minutes. Serve.
