Best 4 Adobo Grilled Veal Flank Steak Recipes

CARNE ADOBADA: GRILLED ADOBO-MARINATED SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• Make the adobo:
• Heat a comal, griddle, or heavy skillet over medium-low heat, and toast the chiles 2 or 3 at a time, turning them over and pressing down on them with tongs frequently, until the chiles are fragrant, about 1 minute per batch. Soak the chiles in enough cold water to cover until they're soft, about 30 minutes. Drain and discard the soaking water.
• Put the vinegar and beer in the blender jar with the chiles and the remaining adobo ingredients. Blend until smooth, at least 3 minutes, adding a little water if necessary to puree. If you like a silky, smooth texture, strain the adobo through a medium-mesh sieve. Set aside 1/2 cup of the adobo to marinate the steak, and keep the rest in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days or in the freezer for up to one month.
• Make the steak:
• Pat the steaks dry, season them with the salt, then coat them generously with adobo. Let them marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill or grill pan and cook the steaks, 3 to 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, depending on their thickness. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before slicing for tacos or serving as whole steaks.

GRILLED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Make the marinade: Combine the canola oil, vinegar, mustard, garlic, oregano, parsley, rosemary and Worcestershire sauce in a food processor; season with salt and pepper. Pulse until the garlic and herbs are incorporated in the oil.
• Place the steak in a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak and marinate in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes or overnight.
• Make the sauce: Remove the steak from the bag and pour the marinade into a small pan. Bring the marinade to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Preheat a grill to high and oil the grates. Grill the steak 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 to 7 minutes, then slice against the grain. Serve with the herb sauce.

ADOBO FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Blend together the garlic, brown sugar, thyme, vinegar, chipotle, and Olive Oil in a blender or food processor.
• Toast the Peppercorns, Cumin Seeds, and Cloves in a dry skillet over medium heat. Toast the spices just until the aromas begin to develop. Do not walk away from the pan or you will risk burning them.
• Place toasted spices and salt in a spice grinder (coffee grinder) and pulse until fine.
• Add spices to the wet mixture in a Large re-sealable plastic bag. Squeeze around to ensure they are mixed together well. Add whole flank steak and again squeeze around to ensure the meat is covered with the marinade. Place the bag inside of a bowl (just in case there is leakage) and marinate for at least 24 hours.
• When ready to cook, remove steak from the bag and discard the marinade.
• Place steak on the grill and cook for about 6 minutes per side or until the desired doneness is reached. Allow the meat to rest for at least 10 minutes before cutting. Slice diagonally against the grain into thin slices.
• Serve with my Roasted Tomato and Corn Relish recipe.

FLANK STEAK IN ADOBO RECIPE - (5/5)

Steps:

• Salsa verde is a green salsa made from tomatillos and green chiles. Our favorite store-bought brand is Frontera Tomatillo Salsa. You can substitute skirt steak for flank steak here, if desired. If queso fresco is unavailable, you can substitute farmer's cheese or a mild feta. This dish is also great served over rice. 1. FOR THE ADOBO: Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange anchos and pasillas on rimmed baking sheet and bake until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Immediately transfer chiles to bowl and cover with hot tap water. Let stand until chiles are softened and pliable, about 5 minutes. Drain. 2. Process salsa verde, broth, orange juice, sugar, lime juice, oregano, salt, pepper, and drained chiles in blender until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside. 3. FOR THE FLANK STEAK: Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees. Pat beef dry with paper towels and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in Dutch oven over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add half of beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned on all sides, 6 to 9 minutes. (Adjust heat, if necessary, to keep bottom of pot from scorching.) Using slotted spoon, transfer beef to large bowl. Repeat with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and remaining beef. 4. Add onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt to now-empty pot. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes, scraping up any browned bits. Add garlic and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in adobo, beef, and any accumulated juices until well incorporated and bring mixture to simmer. 5. Cover pot and transfer to oven. Cook until beef is tender and sauce has thickened, about 1 1/2 hours. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with flour tortillas, sprinkled with queso fresco and cilantro.
