Simpleitaliansteaksauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a small saute pan, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, onions, and garlic and cook until translucent. Remove and let cool.
• Tenderize flank steak with a meat mallet and cut into 1/4-inch pieces, approximately 5 by 8 inches long. Lightly season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Place carrots, red bell peppers, sun-dried tomato, and green onions in separate layers over the first 5 inches of the steak lengthwise. Top with garlic and onion mixture, then evenly coat with shredded mozzarella cheese and parsley.
• Roll flank steak, starting with end that has vegetables, firmly without pushing out vegetables. Secure rolled steak with skewers.
• To a rimmed plate stir the flour and Italian seasoning together and dredge the rolled flank steak, coating evenly.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a medium saute pan heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and when hot add the rolled flank steak, searing on all sides for about 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown. Remove the flank steak from the pan and place on a baking sheet. Place in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 135 degrees F. on an instant-read thermometer.
• Place the saute pan back on burner and deglaze with the white wine. Stir, and reduce for 2 minutes, then add tomato sauce and chicken stock. Let mixture continue to reduce for 2 more minutes. Remove the steak from the oven and let rest. Slice on the bias 1/2-inch, shingle out, and top with sauce.

Steps:

• For the pot roast: Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 300 degrees F.
• Liberally sprinkle the entire roast with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the roast on all sides until golden and caramelized, 5 to 7 minutes per side; reduce the heat if the fat begins to smoke. Transfer the roast to a plate and reduce the heat to medium.
• Add the onions and a pinch of salt and saute, stirring occasionally, until just beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper and garlic and saute until fragrant, another minute. Deglaze with the red wine, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Simmer until reduced by about half, another 2 to 5 minutes. Add the stock and thyme and bring to a simmer. Adjust the seasoning of the liquid.
• Put the roast back in the pot with any accumulated juices and place in the oven, covered. Cook the roast, turning every 30 minutes and uncovering the pot for the last 30 minutes of cooking, until very tender, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and tent with foil. Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F for the peppers and bread.
• For the sweet peppers: Toss the pepper strips with the olive oil, granulated garlic and some salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Bake, stirring halfway through, until lighter in color and softened, about 45 minutes.
• Strain the pot roast jus through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl and return to the pot. Bring to a simmer and simmer until reduced slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. Adjust the seasoning if necessary. Keep warm.
• Once the meat has cooled a bit, remove the twine. Pull the meat into smaller chunks and return to the reduced jus until ready to build the sandwiches.
• For the sandwich build: Rub the rolls with some of the giardiniera oil and toast in the oven until golden brown and crispy, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Place some beef on a roll, then some sweet peppers (with some of the oil they were cooked in), followed by some hot giardiniera. Pour a small dish of reduced jus. Quickly dunk the whole sandwich in the hot jus, then wrap in deli paper or parchment paper and wait for 2 to 3 minutes while the magic happens. Repeat with the remaining rolls and toppings. When ready, open up and eat!

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper, transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
• Lightly pound the steak between 2 sheets of plastic wrap until about 1/8 inch thick. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak in batches and cook until browned, about 30 seconds per side; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the steak to the bowl with the onion and garlic. Add the parsley and giardiniera brine and toss to coat. Drizzle the cut sides of the rolls with olive oil. Pile the steak and onion mixture on the roll bottoms and top with the giardiniera and provolone. Cover with the roll tops. Serve with hot sauce, if desired.

Steps:

• Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, rosemary, parsley, oregano, honey, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Transfer 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette to a small bowl; cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Combine the remaining vinaigrette with the steak in a large resealable bag; turn the bag several times to coat the meat. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight, turning the bag occasionally.
• Preheat a grill to high. Transfer the steak to a plate or baking sheet, letting the excess marinade drip off; season the steak with salt and pepper. Let stand at room temperature, 30 minutes. Grill the steak until a thermometer inserted into the thickest side reaches 130 degrees F, 16 to 20 minutes for medium rare, flipping every 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the meat to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Thinly slice the meat against the grain; serve with the reserved vinaigrette.

Steps:

• For the fries and Marsala mushrooms: Turn oven on 425 degrees F, a rack in lower third and another in upper third of oven.
• Gather bacon, fries, fresh and dried mushrooms, stock, butter, shallots, garlic, thyme, parsley, rosemary and steaks.
• Arrange bacon on broiler pan or wire rack over baking sheet. Arrange the waffle fries on a second large baking sheet. Place fries on top shelf and bacon below in oven. Cook bacon 15 minutes or until brown and very crisp (bacon is optional topping for fries). Cook waffle fries (or potato wedges) 25 minutes, turning once, then season with salt and pepper before topping and serving.
• Gill the portobellos (scrape the underbelly of caps) and thinly slice.
• Place dried mushrooms in small pot or pan, cover with stock or water, bring to a boil and reduce to 1/2 cup liquid, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet, cast-iron griddle or heavy skillet over medium-high heat for steaks.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high to high heat with EVOO, 2 turns of the pan. Add butter to oil and melt. Add fresh mushrooms and brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Meanwhile, peel and chop shallot and grate or chop 2 cloves garlic; strip thyme leaves and chop; finely chop parsley. Add shallots and garlic to mushrooms with salt and pepper and thyme; stir, add Marsala and let it evaporate. Add porcini mushrooms and most of the stock; reserve the last of it as it may collect grit. Add the juice of a lemon and parsley, then reduce heat under the mushrooms to warm.
• Grab more ingredients: cream, cheese and chives.
• Heat cream and a clove of crushed garlic in small pot over medium to medium-high heat, reduce by a third and add gorgonzola; turn heat to low.
• For the sliced steak with rosemary: Season the steaks with kosher salt and coarse pepper. Strip rosemary leaves and coarsely chop, then rub into meat. Add olive oil to pan, 1 turn of the pan, add steaks and cook meat 8 minutes, turning occasionally. Brown and char a halved lemon with steaks the last minute or two. Reduce heat under pan and remove lemon, then add butter and crushed garlic to pan and spoon over meat. Remove meat and rest a couple of minutes, then slice against grain and top with lemon juice.
• Chop bacon, if using.
• Serve sliced steak with a small pile of greens to one side, mushrooms along the other side and waffle fries topped with gorgonzola sauce, bacon bits and chives at end of plate or platter.

Steps:

• Wash, and core tomatoes. I also like to cut the little "nub" off of the bottom of the tomato. Just the nub, and this will make it easier to remove the skins from the tomatoes.
• Place whole tomatoes in a large pot and drizzle 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over tomatoes. Place lid on pot and heat over medium.
• After about 15 minutes give the tomatoes a stir (I use a fork to do this), ensuring not to break them up. This moves the ones on top to the bottom to help the skins to become loose and to prevent burning any skins. Cover and allow to cook for 15 more minutes.
• After 15 minutes, take a fork and fish out a tomato from the bottom. Keeping the tomato in the pot, use two forks, or a fork and wood spoon to start removing the skins. If you like, you can take the tomato out and place on a plate or in a bowl to do this, just make sure you keep the juices. If the tomatoes are not fully ready to be skinned, put the lid back on and check every 5 minutes. (This is the most time consuming part, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes really simple.).
• After all or most of the skins have been discarded, lower the temperature to medium low and allow to simmer uncovered. This is simply stewed tomatoes at this point.
• Once an hour, check the sauce and stir thoroughly. Using a wooden spoon, start to break up the tomatoes over the period of checking them. (Note: Don't break them all the way up on the first, second of even third time of checking them. Break them down over time).
• After about 5 hours, smash all tomatoes with whatever instrument you can find that will work. Add garlic cloves whole, use more than 5 if you like, I DO! (Do not mince/chop garlic) Allow to simmer for another hour. (Note: If you feel the sauce has reached your desired consistency or is nearing, you can add the garlic earlier).
• After 1 more hour, the garlic should be soft enough to smash easily on the side of the pot and the garlic will literally disintegrate into the sauce. If sauce is at your desired consistency, you can remove from the hot eye at this point and go to the next step, if you like your sauce a little less runny, or thicker, leave on and continue to monitor to your liking.
• Once the sauce is to your desired consistency, remove from heat and add 1 cup of fresh basil leaves, stir. Fresh is important to making really good sauce. Salt to taste. If you like a little spice, add some crushed red pepper.
