Pan Seared Steak With Salsa Verde Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Heat a large stainless steel or cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Sprinkle one side of the steak with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to the hot pan and heat. Add the steak seasoned-side down and sprinkle the other side with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook until the steak reaches an internal temperature of 130 to 135 degrees F, about 7 minutes per side; the steak will keep cooking as it rests. Let it rest for 7 to 10 minutes.
• While the steak is resting, add the mint, parsley, capers, vinegar and anchovies to a food processor (or chop and add to a bowl). Pulse until finely chopped. Add the lemon juice and remaining oil and pulse until combined. Season with salt and pepper. Put the salsa into a bowl.
• Slice steak into thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick.
• Layer the grated cheese on the cut sides of the bread loaves. Broil until melted and bubbly.
• Evenly layer the steak, salsa verde and arugula on the bread. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the salsa verde: First, dice the tomatoes, medium cut, then puree them in a food processor or blender. Next, add the cilantro, onions, balsamic, garlic, oil and jalapenos. Again, puree, taste, then season with salt and pepper. After seasoning, place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to merge.
• For the dirty rice: In a saute pan over medium-high heat, add the oil and allow to warm. Next, add the onions and cook, with stirring motion, until slightly translucent. This should take 3 to 4 minutes. Next, add the cooked beans and carrots and allow to warm. Then add the tomato juice and reduce the heat to medium-low. Continue to cook until the juice has reduced to 1/4 cup, 3 to 4 minutes. Next, add the rice. Warm the rice and blend the flavors over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Once the rice has warmed and the juice has finished reducing, remove from the heat, add the celery leaves, taste and season to preference with the Cajun spice.
• For the steak: In a large saute pan over high heat, add and warm the oil for 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle the steaks on both sides with the salt and pepper, and add to the pan. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the steak and repeat the process on the second side for a final 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the pan, allow to rest and serve over the dirty rice. Finish with salsa verde.

Steps:

• For the salsa verde: In a small bowl, mix together parsley, capers, shallot, vinegar, mustard, and 1 tablespoon water; season with salt and pepper.
• For the steak: In a small skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium-high. Season steak generously with salt and pepper. Cook, turning once, until well browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove steak from pan; let rest 5 minutes. Serve with sauce.
• For the green beans: Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring 1 inch salted water to boil over high heat. Add green beans; cover. Cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain beans, place on a plate, and drizzle with remaining teaspoon oil. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Season steak well with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Cut 4 of the scallions into 2-inch pieces; set aside. Finely chop remaining scallions and add to a medium bowl with kale, garlic and olive oil; season with salt and pepper. The mixture won't exactly be saucy yet, but as it sits the kale will soften and loosen up.
• Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook, without moving it, until deeply golden brown on one side, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Flip steak and continue to cook until equally browned on that side, another 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer salsa verde to a large plate, and place steak on top. Add remaining scallions to the pan, letting them sizzle in the leftover fat. Season with salt and pepper and cook until they're wilted and lightly charred, 2 or 3 minutes.
• Let steak sit 5 to 10 minutes to allow it to rest and juices to mingle with the salsa verde.
• Slice the steak and return to plate with salsa verde. Top with seared scallions. Squeeze lemon or lime over everything and sprinkle with flaky salt. Serve with potato chips, if you like.

Steps:

• Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Season steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon butter to one side of pan, and immediately place steak on top; repeat with remaining butter and steak. Do not move meat. Turn after 2 minutes, and cook until an instant-read thermometer reaches 125 degrees for medium-rare or 130 degrees for medium.
• Transfer steaks to warmed plates to rest; reserve skillet for pan sauce, if desired.
