Rib Eye Steak With Blue Cheese Butter And Walla Walla Onion Ring Recipes

Steps:

• Make the compound butter: In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, blue cheese, chives, salt, and pepper until well combined.
• Transfer the butter to a piece of plastic wrap and roll into a log. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until ready to use.
• Make the fried onions: In a shallow bowl, combine the onions and buttermilk and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, paprika, salt, and pepper. Dip the buttermilk-coated onions into the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
• Fill a large skillet with high sides with the canola oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 375˚F (190˚C). Once the oil is hot, add the onions in batches and fry for 3 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer the onions to a wire rack to drain and season with salt.
• Generously season the steaks all over with salt and pepper.
• Add the olive oil to a large cast-iron or stainless-steel pan over high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the steaks and cook, without disturbing, until a brown crust forms, about 7 minutes. Flip the steaks and continue to cook for 7 minutes more, until the steak is browned on both sides. Sear the sides of the steak to render any fat. Add the butter and thyme to the pan. Tilt the pan toward you and baste the steaks with the melted butter for 2 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (60°C) for medium rare.
• Serve the steak with the crispy onions and blue cheese compound butter.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to a high heat or light your outdoor grill.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper and smear both sides of the steaks with 1/2 stick of the butter.
• Grill the steaks until medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side, and then remove from the heat and keep warm. (You can also saute them in a skillet over medium-high heat if you prefer.)
• Melt the remaining 1/2 stick of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and then saute the onions until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Pour in the cream, a dash of salt and pepper and the Worcestershire sauce. Let it bubble up, then add the blue cheese and stir together to melt, adding more pepper or Worcestershire sauce as you wish.
• Place the steaks on plates and spoon the sauce over the top.
• Take a bite. And the world at long last will make sense.

Steps:

• For the blue cheese dressing, combine the heavy cream, cream cheese, sour cream, Gorgonzola, and scallions in a large bowl and gently crush together with a fork. Set aside.
• Preheat a charcoal grill until the coals are white. Rub both sides of the steak with 1 tablespoon (15ml) olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Put the steak in the center of the grill and cook 6 to 7 minutes per side, turn 90-degrees once on each side. If the grill is too hot and the steak is cooking too fast, transfer the steak to indirect heat and cover. Remove the steaks from the grill and rest for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, toss the arugula with the remaining olive oil and season with salt.
• Serve the steaks with the arugula and the blue cheese dressing.

Steps:

• Season steaks with salt and pepper at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour before you plan to cook them. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature.
• Heat grill to high. If using a charcoal grill, mound coals to one side, allowing for an area of indirect heat. If using a gas grill, turn on only a few of the burners and leave the rest off for indirect heat.
• Lightly oil steaks. Place on the hottest part of the grill. Cook, covered, until they develop a golden-brown crust, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move steaks to indirect heat and crumble cheese over the top; cover and continue cooking 2 to 5 minutes longer, depending on desired doneness. (Pull the meat at 125 degrees for rare.)
• Transfer steaks to a cutting board to rest, loosely covered with foil, for 10 minutes. While steaks rest, stir together butter, chives and hot sauce. Pour over steak before serving.

Steps:

• Steaks.
• Sprinkle steaks on both sides with coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place on plate; cover and chill overnight.
• Blue Cheese Butter.
• Using fork, mix all ingredients in small bowl. Season with freshly ground black pepper. DO AHEAD Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before using.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill steaks to desired doneness, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to cutting board; let rest 5 minutes.
• Walla Walla Onion Rings.
• Meanwhile, whisk flour, coarse salt, and baking powder in medium bowl. Add beer and vodka; whisk just until blended. Pour enough oil into heavy large pot to reach depth of 2 inches. Attach deep-fry thermometer to side of pot; heat oil over medium heat to 350°F Working with 2 onion rings at a time, dip onion rings into batter; shake off excess. Gently drop onion rings into hot oil; fry until deep golden, adjusting heat to maintain temperature, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer onion rings to paper towels. Repeat with remaining batter and onion rings.
• Cut steaks in half across grain. Place 1 steak half on each of 4 plates. Top with blue cheese butter and onion rings.

Steps:

• For gorgonzola butter:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place garlic on piece of foil; drizzle with olive oil. Enclose garlic in foil. Bake until garlic is very soft, about 1 hour. Cool. Squeeze garlic cloves out from papery skins into medium bowl; mash garlic with fork. Mix in butter, cheese, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer Gorgonzola butter to sheet of plastic wrap. Using plastic wrap as aid, form butter into 1 1/4-inch-diameter log, wrapping plastic tightly around butter. Chill until firm. (Can be made 2 days ahead; keep chilled.) Cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
• For onion rings:
• Pour buttermilk into large bowl. Add onion rings; toss to coat. Let stand 1 hour, tossing occasionally. Mix flour, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in another large bowl.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Pour enough oil into heavy large skillet to reach depth of 3 inches. Heat over medium-high heat to 350°F. Working with a few onion rings at a time, shake off excess buttermilk, then turn onion rings in flour mixture to coat. Fry onion rings until deep golden brown, adjusting heat as necessary for each batch to maintain temperature at 350°F, about 2 minutes. Transfer onion rings to paper towels to drain, then place on baking sheet and keep warm in oven while frying remaining onion rings.
• For steaks:
• Brush steaks with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat 2 large nonstick skillets over medium-high heat. Add 3 steaks to each skillet and cook to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Serve with Gorgonzola butter and onion rings.

Steps:

• Season the steaks with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with the onion powder and garlic powder.
• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Coat with a little oil, then add the steaks and cook on each side for 4 minutes or until seared. After the second flip, add the 2 tablespoons butter, the rosemary and garlic. Once the butter melts, tilt the skillet slightly to pool the liquid, then constantly spoon the butter over the steaks for 2 more minutes. Flip the steaks and baste again for 2 minutes. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let rest on a platter.
• Meanwhile, cook the mushrooms: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat, add the sherry, then return to the heat and cook, scraping any browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add the butter, swirl the skillet to coat, then season with salt and pepper. Set aside and keep warm.
• For the blue cheese butter: Mash the butter, blue cheese and parsley together with a fork in a small bowl until combined. Use right away or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Alternatively, you can fill small cookie cutters with the blue cheese butter and refrigerate until firm enough to unmold and take on a decorative shape. A leaf-shaped cutter would be pretty.
• Serve the mushrooms directly on top of the steaks. Or slice the steaks and serve the mushrooms in a side dish. Top each steak with a pat of the blue cheese butter, if desired.

Steps:

• Place steaks in shallow dish. Drizzle with oil; rub oil all over steaks. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour.
• Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and garlic; sauté until mushrooms are just tender, about 4 minutes.
• Heat heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steaks to skillet; fry until cooked to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Using tongs, transfer steaks to plates; tent loosely with foil to keep warm.
• Add broth, then brandy and minced rosemary to same large skillet and bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Add mushroom mixture. Boil until liquid is thick enough to coat spoon lightly, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup cheese; stir just until cheese melts, about 1 minute. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
• Spoon sauce over steaks. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Garnish with rosemary sprigs.
