Number Of Ingredients 3
Steps:
- Season beef with salt and pepper. Dip the top and bottom of the beef into the coffee beans. Place the beef, espresso-crusted end down, in super-hot, ovenproof cast iron pan. Sear all sides of the beef, saving the other espresso-crusted side for last. Place the un-seared side down in the pan and move into a 500-degree oven. Cook until desired temperature, 2 minutes being rare and 8 being well done (times will vary). Allow meat rest for a few minutes after cooking, as it allows the juices to spread out from the center where they've contracted during the cooking process.
ESPRESSO BEEF TENDERLOIN FILET WITH TAWNY PORT SAUCE
Steps:
- 1. To make the rub, mix all ingredients in a mixing bowl. Set aside. Preheat oven to 400. Coat each filet generously with the rub. Preheat an ovenproof saute pan over medium high heat. Add olive oil to pan. Put both filets in pan and sear on one side for about 4 minutes. Turn filets over and transfer pan to oven for about 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare. Add 1 1/2 minutes of cooking time for each degree of doneness. Remove filets from oven and put on plate. Let rest while making sauce. To make sauce, return pan to stovetop over medium high heat. Add port to pan and simmer for about 3 minutes or until reduced by half. Add thyme, garlic, stock, butter and salt and pepper to taste. Reduce heat to medium low so that the sauce simmers. Put cornstarch and water in a bowl. Stir to mix. If sauce is not as thick as you would like, add a teaspoon of the cornstarch mixture and stir for 10 seconds. Repeat until desired consistency is achieved. Slice filets across grain into three equal pieces. Overlap slices on each plate and top with sauce. Makes 2 servings. This dish goes well with a full bodied red wine. Cooking the Costco way
Tips:
- Choose a high-quality espresso roast. A dark roast with a bold flavor will stand up well to the other ingredients in the dish.
- Don't overcook the steak. A medium-rare steak will be the most tender and flavorful.
- Use a good quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil has a fruity flavor that will complement the other ingredients in the dish.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs. A little bit of garlic powder, onion powder, or dried thyme can really enhance the flavor of the dish.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing it. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Beef espresso is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The combination of espresso, beef, and spices creates a unique and flavorful dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook steak, give beef espresso a try.
