CUMIN STEAK WITH KALE, FENNEL AND FETA SALAD



Cumin Steak With Kale, Fennel and Feta Salad image

Want a juicy steak dinner on the fly? Skirt steak is fast, flavorful and forgiving. With a searing-hot grill and a quick marinade (30 minutes does the trick), you can yield a deeply charred, flavor-packed crust with a tender inside. Make sure not to overcook this; medium to medium-rare is ideal. The equally fast side of shaved kale, fennel and crumbled feta is a willing accompaniment to any steak dinner, and just as at home with a pork tenderloin or chops. Raisins, a subtle addition, add a bit of natural sweetness, but skip them if you're raisin-averse.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 pounds skirt steak
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, chopped or pressed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 small bunch lacinato kale, stemmed, ribbed and thinly sliced (about 10 cups or 10 ounces)
1 small head fennel (or 1/2 a large head), thinly sliced (about 8 ounces)
6 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
1/3 cup raisins (optional)

Steps:

  • Pat steak dry with paper towels and place in a resealable bag or large bowl with 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic and cumin. Toss to coat and set aside for at least 30 minutes or refrigerate up to overnight.
  • Meanwhile, make the salad: Whisk together the remaining lemon juice and olive oil. Add the kale and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and massage the dressing into the kale to soften it. Add the fennel, feta and raisins, if using, and toss vigorously until evenly mixed.
  • Light the grill or heat the broiler. Remove the steak from the marinade and let the excess drip off. (A dry steak yields a better, crisper sear.) Grill the meat until seared and cooked to taste, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare to medium, or broil until charred, 2 to 5 minutes per side.
  • Let the meat rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain and serving, with the salad alongside.

Sunny's Easy Cumin-Rubbed Steak with Cucumber Salad image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 2h25m

Yield 2 steaks

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons hot Hungarian paprika
2 teaspoons granulated garlic powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Two 1-inch-thick T-bone steaks
Olive oil, for drizzling
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
4 inches English cucumber, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
2 radishes, thinly sliced
2 to 3 paper-thin slices red onion
1/2 small jalapeno pepper, thinly sliced (optional, but cmaaaan!)

Steps:

  • For the steaks: In a small bowl, combine the cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Sprinkle over both sides of each steak and rub into the meat. Rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
  • Once the steaks have rested, heat a large cast-iron skillet or griddle pan on medium-high heat. Drizzle the steaks with olive oil on both sides, then add the steaks to the hot skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, then flip and cook on the second side just 2 minutes more, or until desired doneness. Remove the steaks to a plate, cover with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • For the cucumber salad: In a medium bowl, combine the lime juice, vinegar, sugar, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper and whisk together until the sugar and salt have dissolved. Add the cucumber, radishes, red onion and jalapeno if using. Toss and let sit at room temperature while the steaks are resting. Serve the steaks topped with the cucumber mixture.

BAVETTE STEAK WITH TAHINI-VEGETABLE SALAD



Bavette Steak With Tahini-Vegetable Salad image

Searing a boneless steak in plenty of fat gives the meat crisp edges while keeping it juicy. While you can use any cut of boneless steak in this recipe (which is adapted from Kate Kavanaugh, the owner of Western Daughters Butcher Shoppe in Denver), bavette steak, also called flap meat or sirloin tip, is a particularly flavorful and tender choice. Ms. Kavanaugh likes to serve it alongside a crunchy vegetable salad that is layered with thinly sliced strawberries and tart rhubarb and tossed with a lime-tahini dressing, but any tangy salad will work well with the richness of the meat.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 pounds bavette steak (sometimes called flap meat or sirloin tip) or flank steak, preferably grass-fed and finished
Flaky sea salt, as needed
2 tablespoons ghee, tallow or neutral oil
2 tablespoons tahini, preferably raw
Finely grated zest of 1/2 lime plus juice of 2 limes
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon cold water
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more as needed
10 to 12 medium-firm strawberries, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
1 1/4 cups thinly sliced rhubarb (about 1 stalk) or peeled carrots
1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced into rounds (about 1 1/2 cups)
3 hakurei or other small sweet turnips, thinly sliced into rounds (about 3/4 cup)
3 medium radishes, thinly sliced into rounds (about 3/4 cup)
1 quart mixed tender greens
2/3 cup packed coarsely chopped mint
1/2 cup packed chopped basil

Steps:

  • Pull the steak out of the fridge 1 hour before cooking to come to room temperature. About 5 minutes before cooking, generously season steak all over with flaky sea salt (this helps the salt retain some crunch).
  • Heat a cast-iron or other heavy-duty skillet over medium-high until hot enough that a drop of water will sizzle on contact. Add ghee to the skillet and let it melt.
  • Add bavette steak and cook, flipping every 2 minutes, until medium-rare, about 8 minutes total, or until medium, about 10 minutes total. (Bavette steak has a tendency to puff up as it cooks, taking longer than the average steak to reach medium-rare. You'll want to reduce the cooking time if using flank steak.) Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the salad: In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lime zest and juice, olive oil, cold water and 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt until smooth. Taste and season with more salt, if needed.
  • In a large bowl, toss together strawberries, rhubarb, cucumber, turnips and radishes. Add just enough dressing to coat, then taste and add more salt, if needed. Add the greens, mint and basil to the bowl and toss gently, adding more dressing and salt, if needed.
  • Slice steak against the grain and serve with salad.

KALE AND FENNEL SKILLET



Kale and Fennel Skillet image

I love to mix different vegetables together and use unexpected herbs and spices to change things up. If you can't find apple sausage for this skillet, a good mild Italian sausage would work just fine. -Patricia Levenson, Santa Ana, California

KALE AND FETA SALAD



Kale and Feta Salad image

I've been making variations of this salad for years. I recently learned how to massage the kale and it makes a huge difference. I had a friend ask for my recipe and I realized I don't have one. This is my first attempt at writing a recipe, so please let me know how it works out! I like to change up the ingredients: sometimes a pear instead of an apple, cranberries instead of currants, Parmesan instead of feta, etc. Great as a side dish or by itself the next day for lunch!
