Spiced Up Steak Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Rub about 1 teaspoon of spice mixture over each side of steaks. , Grill, covered, over medium heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°).

Steps:

• For the butter: Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, work butter in a bowl until it is softened and very spreadable. Add all other ingredients, and mix until thoroughly combined. Place butter in the middle of a piece of plastic wrap, shape butter into a log, wrap it up, and twist the ends of the plastic to close. Place in the refrigerator until firm, at least 30 minutes.
• For the steaks: Pat steaks dry with paper towels, coat with olive oil, and set aside to come to room temperature, at least 5 minutes.
• Heat a large seasoned cast iron skillet or large frying pan over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking, about 3 minutes. Place steaks in pan and cook, undisturbed so they can get well-browned, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove steaks to a dish, top with pats of compound butter, and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients but steak in small bowl. Rub mixture over both sides of steaks. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Prepare barbecue or preheat broiler. Grill or broil steak to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium rare.

Steps:

• Gather all your ingredients and place around large work area, near stove.
• Pat meat dry and cut it into 3 or 4 portions, then thinly slice the meat into strips against the grain of the meat.
• Place a small skillet with seeds and peppercorns over medium heat and toast a minute until fragrant. Place in spice mill and grind. Combine with chili powder, garam masala and turmeric. (Ready-ground spices can be substituted but toasted whole seeds and peppercorns that are freshly ground are a little deeper and bigger in flavor.)
• Peel and chop red onion. Seed and thinly slice bell pepper. Thinly slice or chop the fresh chili peppers. Seed if you prefer milder food or leave seeds in for extra spicy. Grate or mince ginger and garlic.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high to high heat. Add oil, 2 turns of the pan, and cook beef in single layer to brown and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Season with salt and remove to platter. Add more oil, another turn of the pan, and add onions and peppers, toss 3 minutes. Add ginger, garlic and curry leaves and toss a minute more. Add beef back to pan, sprinkle in spice blend, toss to combine with peppers and douse with lemon juice, sherry or vinegar. Garnish beef with cilantro. Serve beef with rice or grilled naan, mango chutney and Mumbai Mule.
• Bring water (with or without aromatics) to a boil. Add rice and salt and cook in boiling water, 12 minutes. Rinse in strainer using HOT water, drain and remove aromatics if using.
• For the simple syrup: Heat the water and sugar in a small saucepan until sugar is melted. Add lavender and let cool. Store in refrigerator.
• For the mule: Run a fresh cut lime over the rim of a copper mug or rocks glass. Place rim of glass upside down into a saucer filled with chili powder to coat the rim. Fill glass with ice. Place vodka, lime juice, turmeric, ginger beer and 1/2 ounce lavender simple syrup into glass. Stir gently and garnish with a lavender sprig and lime wheel.

Steps:

• Mix all the spices together including the salt and pepper.
• Lightly coat the steak with the herbs and cook on high heat for 2 minutes on each side on high heat.
• Serve with a bread roll, chips and a salad (try my Recipe #15758).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Spread 2 tablespoons salt, the coriander seeds, peppercorns, paprika, red pepper flakes, dill seeds and minced garlic in an even layer on the baking sheet and roast until the garlic is dry, about 30 minutes; let cool. Transfer to a spice grinder and pulse several times. (The spiced salt can be made up to 1 week ahead; store in an airtight container.)
• Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 1 hour before grilling to bring to room temperature; sprinkle each side with 1/2 teaspoon of the prepared spiced salt, then cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
• Preheat a grill to high and prepare for indirect grilling: On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; on a gas grill, turn off half of the burners. Wipe the salt off the steaks and pat dry; brush lightly with olive oil. Grill over direct heat until marked on the bottom, about 2 minutes, then rotate 90 degrees F and cook 2 more minutes. Flip the steaks and repeat on the other side, then transfer to the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat); cook 5 more minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill the tomatoes over direct heat, turning, until marked, about 5 minutes. Serve with the steaks and the remaining spiced salt.

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, mix the paprika, coriander, cumin, garlic salt, and pepper. Place steak in the bag, and shake to coat. Allow to sit 20 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the oven broiler. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• Arrange steak on the baking sheet, and broil 5 minutes on each side, or to desired doneness. Serve with Ranch dressing for dipping.

Steps:

• Makes steaks:
• Preheat broiler and lightly oil rack of broiler pan.
• Finely grind spices with brown sugar and 11/2 tsp salt in grinder.
• Pat steak dry, then sprinkle evenly with spice mixture and rub into meat. Broil steak 2 to 3 inches from heat, turning once, 7 to 12 minutes for medium-rare. Let steak rest on a plate at least 10 minutes.
• Make sauce while steak rests:
• Heat sauce ingredients, except cilantro, with meat juices from plate in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring, until warm. Stir in cilantro before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk together all ingredients in a bowl.

Steps:

• Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. In a small bowl, combine oil, cumin, and coriander; season with salt and pepper.
• Alternately thread steak, bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms onto ten 8-inch skewers. Brush with oil mixture and grill until steak is medium-rare and vegetables are lightly charred, 6 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally. Refrigerate 4 kebabs, up to 3 days, for later use. Serve remaining kebabs with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Let the steaks come to room temperature. Pat dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of each steak with the oil and set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients with the orange peel, if desired, to create the spice rub. Sprinkle the rub on both sides of the steaks, pressing to adhere to the surface of the meat (some spice rub will be left over).
• If using a gas grill, preheat to medium- to medium-high, depending on your grill. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the hot charcoal or wood briquettes evenly under the cooking area for direct heat. Oil the grate.
• Grill for about 7 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer registers 140 degrees for medium-rare. Let steaks rest, covered, for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Prick ham slice with a fork all over to make holes and slash the edges so it won't curl during baking.
• Place in baking dish just big enough to hold slice.
• Mix all other ingredients together well and pour over ham.
• Marinate at least 30 minutes but can be longer (some times I do it in a baggie overnight).
• Put in 350* oven, bake for about 30 minutes. Mmmm!

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine all ingredients. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 1 year.

Steps:

• Season item.

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced sirloin and salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder to taste. Stir and saute for 5 to 10 minutes, or until meat is well browned.
• Then add the onion and saute for 5 more minutes. Then stir in the chile peppers OR bell peppers, tomatoes, soup and milk. Mix this all together well, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often.
