Steps:
- About 20 minutes before grilling, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let sit, covered, at room temperature.
- Heat your grill to high. Brush the steaks on both sides with oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the steaks over and continue to grill 3 to 5 minutes for medium-rare (an internal temperature of 135 degrees F), 5 to 7 minutes for medium (140 degrees F) or 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well (150 degrees F).
- Transfer the steaks to a cutting board or platter, tent loosely with foil and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.

Steps:
- Place large cast iron skillet (preferred) or other large heavy skillet (not nonstick) on high heat at least 5 minutes or until very hot. (See Test Kitchen Tips if using nonstick cookware.).
- Mix rub, paprika, thyme and red pepper in small bowl.
- Brush each side of steaks with butter or oil. Generously season with rub mixture.
- Carefully place steaks in hot skillet. Cook 8 to 10 minutes or until desired doneness, turning once.
- Test Kitchen Tips: To avoid the smoke generated from high temperature cooking, blacken the steaks outdoors. Preheat large cast iron or other large heavy skillet on stovetop or in oven and carefully transfer to a hot grill to cook the steaks.
- To Use Nonstick Skillet: Prepare steaks as directed above. Heat large nonstick skillet on medium heat 5 minutes. Cook as directed above. Increase cook time as needed for desired doneness.
- To Grill: Steaks can also be cooked directly on a preheated grill. Flavor and appearance will vary from the traditional skillet method.
- Black and Blue Steak: Cut a 4-inch wide pocket in each 2 New York Strip Steaks (3/4 inch thick) being careful not to cut through back or sides of steak. Continue as directed in Steps 2 and 3. Fill pocket of each steak with about 2 tablespoons blue cheese. Press steak lightly to seal closed. Cook as directed.
BLACKENED GRILLED FLANK STEAK
I love flank steak because it's usually one of the cheapest cuts of beef, but it doesn't taste cheap! This is a great way to cook it for serving alongside grilled corn or other veggies. Or, you can serve it in tortillas as fajita tacos, which is what we usually do. From Cooking Light.

Steps:
- Combine first 7 ingredients; rub spice mixture over both sides of steak. Cover and refrigerate 3 hours.
- Prepare grill.
- Place steak on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 5 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness.
- Let stand 10 minutes. Cut steak diagonally across the grain into thin slices.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of steak: Look for tender cuts like ribeye, strip steak, or tenderloin.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a mixture of spices, herbs, and oil helps tenderize and flavor the meat.
- Heat your grill to high heat: This will create a nice sear on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy.
- Season the steak liberally: Use a generous amount of salt and pepper, as well as any other desired seasonings.
- Cook the steak for a short amount of time: Blackened steak is typically cooked for only a few minutes per side, so keep an eye on it to prevent overcooking.
- Let the steak rest before serving: Allow the steak to rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
Conclusion:
Blackened steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. By following these tips, you can create a blackened steak that is juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Experiment with different marinades and seasonings to find the perfect combination for your taste buds.
