New York Strip Steak With Cognac Butter And Portobello Mushroom Ragout Recipes

Steps:

• To prepare the steaks: Rub steaks with garlic clove, salt and cracked pepper. Marinate in Worcestershire sauce for 1 hour minimum.
• To prepare the ragout: Grill mushrooms whole, then coursely chop into 1/2 inch cubes. Pour olive oil in pan, add mushrooms and shallots, and saute until soft. Add tomatoes, heavy cream, and stock. Simmer and reduce for about 10 minutes. Add herbs and seasonings and remove from heat. Keep warm if using immediately.
• To cook steaks and prepare cognac butter: Sear steaks in a heavy skillet on high heat to desired temperature, remove from heat. Add cognac and flame off, then whisk in the butter.
• Place mushroom ragout on plate. Cut steaks across the grain into 1/2 inch slices. Fan steaks on top of ragout and drizzle with cognac butter. Garnish as desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Steps:

• In a small bowl, soak the dried mushrooms in 1/4 cup of hot water for 30 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the soaking liquid and coarsely chop. Strain and reserve the liquid.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery, and shallots, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, porcini, rosemary, and cook for 2 minutes more. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the wine and the reserved mushroom liquid and simmer until the liquid is reduced by about half. Add the tomatoes and a 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook over medium-low heat for 20 minutes. In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and butter over high heat. When the foam begins to subside, add the mushrooms. Lower the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and season with pepper to taste. Add the mushrooms to the tomato sauce and simmer for 5 minutes. Serve as is, or with pasta, polenta, or toasted bread.

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:

• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until smoking. Sprinkle the steaks all over with salt and pepper. Put the steaks in the pan and cook, turning to brown all sides completely, until medium-rare, 8 to 10 minutes depending on how thick the steaks are. Remove the steaks to a platter with tongs and cover loosely with a tent of aluminum foil to keep the meat warm while you make the sauce.
• Put the saute pan back over medium-high heat and add 1/4 cup olive oil. When the oil is smoking, add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, about 10 minutes, until golden brown. Then add the thyme and garlic, and season well with salt and pepper. Toss a few more times to cook the garlic, then dump the mushrooms out onto a platter. Take the pan off the heat, add the brandy, and cook until almost evaporated. Add the cream and cook that down 2 to 3 minutes until reduced by about one-half and thickened. Return the mushrooms to the pan with whatever juices have collected on the platter and simmer the whole thing another 2 minutes until thickened again. Season with salt and pepper.
• Slice the steak thin against the grain. Taste the sauce for salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Brush the mushrooms all over with olive oil. Sprinkle the pepper evenly over the gill sides (about 1/2 teaspoon per mushroom). Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high, then add the mushrooms gill side up and sear until the underside is browned and the gill side looks wet, 3 to 6 minutes. Flip and cook until golden and the pepper is fragrant, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Flip the mushrooms so they're gill side up, then add the butter and garlic, and season with salt. While stirring the garlic to keep it from scorching, tilt the skillet to spoon up the melting butter and baste the mushrooms until tender, 2 to 5 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a plate, leaving the butter in the skillet.
• Add the shallot and stir until softened, 2 to 4 minutes, adding a little more butter if the pan is dry. Stand back, and carefully add the Cognac. (It might flame.) Stir until the Cognac has nearly evaporated. Add the heavy cream and mustard, season with salt, and stir to combine. Return the mushrooms to the pan gill side down, and cook until the cream is thickened and the color of a latte, 2 to 4 minutes. Eat the mushrooms with a drizzle of the sauce.

Steps:

• Heat 1 T of the oil in large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Season steaks with 1 t of the salt and 1/4 t of the pepper.
• Place steaks in the hot pan and cook, turning to brown both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• Remove steaks and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
• In same skillet, add the remaining 1 T oil.
• Add mushrooms and cook, stirring for 10-15 minutes, until mushrooms are golden and soft.
• Add thyme, 1/4 t salt and garlic and cook for 2 more minutes.
• Remove mushrooms with a slotted spoon; place in a bowl.
• In same skillet, add brandy and cook until brandy is almost evaporated, about 1 minute.
• Add cream and cook 2-3 minutes, until slightly thickened.
• Return mushrooms and their juices to the pan and simmer for 2 more minutes.
• Season with the remaining 1/4 t salt and 1/4 t pepper.
• Serve with steak.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix together 3 tablespoons olive oil, cumin, red pepper flakes, oregano and salt to taste in a bowl and coat the steaks in the mixture.
• Heat a large frying pan on high heat and fry the steaks on each side for 2 to 3 minutes until they are browned.
• Place two 1 1/2 to 2 feet long sheets of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil on a table and place each steak in the center of the foil and fold up the ends and the outside of the foil to create a packet.
• Bake the steak for 10 minutes for a medium-rare internal temperature. Add 5 more minutes of baking to achieve a medium internal temperature.
• Remove the steaks from the packets and let them rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
• Combine the garlic, parsley, cilantro, red wine vinegar, remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and salt and pepper in a food processor and process on high speed until it becomes like a paste.
• Serve the steak alongside the Chimichurri Sauce.

Steps:

• Pour beef broth into a saucepan and add bouillon cube. Bring to a rapid boil over high heat for 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and let simmer for at least 30 minutes. Set aside 3 tablespoons for ragout; store remaining broth in the refrigerator for another use.
• Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and add 1/2 teaspoon oil. Add portobello mushrooms and sear, 3 to 5 minutes. Set portabellos aside.
• Sear shiitake mushrooms over medium-high heat in the same pan without adding more oil, 3 to 5 minutes. Set shiitakes aside.
• Reheat the same pan over medium-high heat and add remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Add garlic and cook until browned, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and wine; cook for 2 minutes. Add reserved beef broth and cook for 3 minutes.
• Stir portabello and shiitake mushrooms into the pan and cook, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in butter gently until ragout is coated. Top with Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Roast the steaks at low heat: Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Season steaks generously with salt on all sides. Place steaks on a wire rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet; this will ensure even airflow all around the steaks as they cook. Cook for 25-35 minutes, checking after 20 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F. (Note: Once the temperature reaches 80 degrees F, it will climb quickly.) For an accurate temperature, place the thermometer through the side into the center of the steak. When steak reaches 125 degrees F, let rest 10 minutes.
• Sear the steaks: Heat skillet over high heat. Add the oil and heat until smoking; then add the steaks. Cook for 1 minute, undisturbed. Flip steaks, drain off the fat, then cook another 1 minute, undisturbed. Meanwhile, gently smash the garlic cloves with the heel of your hand until you hear a crack, leaving the peels attached.Add 2 tablespoons of butter, garlic cloves, thyme, and rosemary to the skillet. Tilt the pan and continually baste the steaks with the hot butter as it browns and gets foamy. Take the pan off the heat as you baste if the butter is browning too quickly or the herbs and garlic are starting to burn. Add remaining tablespoon of butter; once the first side is well-browned, flip the steaks and continue basting-a French technique called arroser-until the butter is no longer foamy. (Once the steaks have been flipped, Chef Pandel continues basting with his pan entirely off the heat; you may need to do the same, depending on the variables of stove temperature, pan, and the steaks themselves.) When it's no longer foamy, the butter has done its job and the steaks should be well seared with a nice crust. Check the temperature of the steaks: for medium-rare, the internal temperature should be 125 degrees F-130 degrees F. Remove steaks to the rack to rest, about 10 minutes. Serve right away.
