Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the chutney:
1/2 grapefruit, thinly sliced, seeds removed
8 ounces kumquats, sliced, seeds removed
1 shallot, finely chopped
2/3 cup sugar
Pinch of kosher salt
1 tablespoon Champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar
For the steak and assembly:
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
2 tablespoons ground coffee
2 tablespoons kosher salt
4 teaspoons light brown sugar
4 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil (for grilling)
2 hanger steaks, center membrane removed, each cut into 4 pieces
Special Equipment
A spice mill or a mortar and pestle

Steps:

  • Make the chutney:
  • Bring grapefruit, kumquats, shallot, sugar, salt, and 1/4 cup water to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally and lowering heat if needed, until citrus is soft and liquid is syrupy, 45-60 minutes. Stir in vinegar and let cool. Cover and chill.
  • For the steak and assembly:
  • Toast coriander seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool, then finely grind in spice mill or mortar and pestle. Mix ground coriander, coffee, salt, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil grate. Season steaks generously with rub (you'll have some left over). Grill steaks, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and cooked to desired doneness, 8-10 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes, then slice against the grain. Serve with citrus chutney.
  • Do Ahead
  • Chutney can be made 1 week ahead. Keep chilled. Rub can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.

Yield Makes 2-4 servings, depending on your appetite.

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 Steaks
8 oz orange juice
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp tarragon
pepper

Steps:

  • Puncture your steak at 1 inch intervals, then soak it in a combination of the pepper, tarragon, orang and lemon juices for an hour. Sear on the grill on high heat, brushing on more of the mixture after turning.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality steaks with good marbling for added flavor and tenderness.
  • Marinate the steaks in the citrus marinade for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
  • Preheat your grill to a high heat before cooking to ensure a good sear.
  • Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes per side over direct heat to create a crust.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook the steaks for 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
  • Let the steaks rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Grilled citrus steaks are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer barbecue or weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a mouthwatering steak that is sure to impress your friends and family.
