Pan Seared Spanish Steaks Recipes

Steps:

• Remove steak(s) from fridge and start bringing them to room temperature.
• After 30 to 45 minutes, place a 10 to 12-inch cast iron skillet in oven and heat oven to 500 degrees F.
• When oven reaches temperature, remove the pan and place it on a burner over high heat.
• Coat steak(s) lightly with oil and season both sides with a generous pinch of salt. Grind on black pepper to taste.
• Immediately place steak(s) in the middle of the hot, dry pan. Cook 30 to 60 seconds without moving. Turn the steak(s) with tongs and cook another 30 to 60 seconds, then put the pan straight into the oven for 3 to 5 minutes. Flip steak(s) and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes. (The time in the oven depends on how rare you like your steaks. The time given is for medium, but depends on number of steaks, etc. as well.)
• Remove the steak(s) from the pan, cover loosely with foil, and rest for 2 minutes.
• Serve whole or slice thin and fan onto plate.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 450 F. Heat the butter and olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the sprigs of rosemary as your pan is heating. Salt and pepper the meat to your liking (I recommend a generous pinch of each, which is a THREE-finger pinch.)
• When the butter has melted and the oil is heated, add your steaks to the pan to get a nice golden-brown sear on them. This should take about 2 minutes on each side. Then place your pan in the oven until the steaks are cooked to your preference, 7 to 9 minutes. (Eight minutes makes a perfect medium, my favorite!)
• Allow the meat to rest 5 minutes before slicing and serving. These rosemary-infused steaks are nothing short of delicious.

Steps:

• Brush four 12-ounce boneless rib-eyes or strip steaks with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and rub with Spanish Spice Rub on one side. Grill rub-side down over high heat, 3 to 4 minutes, then flip and grill 5 to 6 more minutes (for medium-rare). Serve with Sherry Vinegar Steak Sauce (recipe below).
• Whisk all of the ingredients in a bowl.
• Blend all of the ingredients in a food processor or blender until smooth. If the mixture is too thick to pour, add a few tablespoons of water.

Steps:

• Mix soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, sesame oil, molasses, cayenne pepper, ginger, and garlic together in a bowl.
• Place tuna steaks in a large resealable bag or airtight container; pour marinade over steaks. Marinate steaks at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Remove steaks from marinade and arrange in the hot pan; gently shake pan to avoid sticking. Cook approximately 1 1/2 minutes and flip. Cook other side until tuna is desired doneness, 1 to 2 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400. Heat oil in a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet (not a nonstick) over medium-high until it begins to smoke. Pat steak dry with paper towels. Season each side with 1 teaspoon coarse salt and 1 teaspoon cracked pepper.
• Cook steak in skillet over medium-high heat until a dark crust has formed, 5 to 7 minutes per side (reduce heat if meat is browning too quickly). Holding steak with tongs, quickly brown all edges, turning as necessary; lay steak flat in skillet.
• Transfer skillet to oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of steak registers desired doneness, 5 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a plate; spread with 1 tablespoon Steak Butter. Cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest 5 to 10 minutes (temperature will then rise another 5 to 10 degrees). Slice across the grain; serve with remaining Steak Butter. Cover and refrigerate any leftovers, up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Brush both sides of the steaks with oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large, heavy skillet over high heat. Add the steaks and sear on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn and sear on the second side for 3 to 4 minutes for rare, 5 to 8 minutes for med. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat.
• Add onions & salt and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out skillet with paper towels.
• Add remaining oil to skillet & adjust flame to medium high.
• Pat steaks dry & add to oil. Leave them alone for for 4-5 minutes then flip & cook other side 3-4 minutes. Remove & wrap tightly in foil.
• Discard any remaining fat in skillet, return onions to pan & reduce temp to medium. Add garlic & cook 30 seconds.
• Add 1/2 cup vinegar, rosemary and brown sugar and cook, scraping up browned bits, until thick & syrupy, about 2 minutes.
• Unwrap steak & pour any accumulated juices in skillet along with remaining vinegar. Salt & pepper to taste.
• Slice steaks crosswise in 1/4 slices & serve topped with onions & sauce.

Steps:

• Heat a 14-inch skillet over high heat until very hot. Season steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. Add 1 teaspoon butter to one area of skillet, and immediately place a steak on top. Repeat with remaining butter and steaks. Cook steaks, without moving them, 3 minutes. Flip steaks, and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 125 degrees to 130 degrees (for medium-rare), 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Transfer steaks to warmed plates, and let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Serve with mustard and steak sauce if desired.

Steps:

• Trim the steaks of any gristle. If you are using top sirloin, cut into 4 steaks of roughly equal size. To make the marinade, in a shallow bowl large enough to accommodate the steaks, combine the garlic, pepper, Maggi sauce, and oil and mix well. Add the steaks and use your fingers to coat all sides. Set aside for 30 minutes, turning the steaks over after 15 minutes.
• Heat a 12-inch heavy-bottomed or cast-iron skillet over medium heat until hot. To test if it is ready, flick a drop of water into it. It should immediately dance and then evaporate. Add the steaks and let them cook, undisturbed, for 6 minutes. The steaks should be well browned on the underside. Use tongs to turn the steaks over. Cook them on the second side, undisturbed, for another 4 minutes for rare, 5 minutes for medium-rare, and 6 minutes for medium. If you are unsure about the doneness of the meat, nick a steak with the sharp point of a paring knife and check the color.
• Transfer the steaks to a plate and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing across the grain. Arrange the slices on a platter and include the juices, too. Serve immediately.
