Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

For the steak:
1 1/4 cups extra-virgin olive oil
3 sprigs rosemary
1 12-ounce New York strip steak
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the dressing:
1/2 pound blue cheese, crumbled
1/3 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Pinch of cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons minced fresh chives
For the salad:
2 peaches, halved and pitted
4 cups mesclun greens (about 3 ounces)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
3 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare the steak: Heat the olive oil and rosemary in a small saucepan over low heat, 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature. Pat the steak dry, season with salt and black pepper and place in a shallow glass pan. Pour 1 cup of the infused oil over the steak; cover and refrigerate 3 hours, turning the steak occasionally. Remove from the refrigerator about 45 minutes before cooking.
  • Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat until very hot. Season the steak with salt and black pepper and grill 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Make the dressing: Whisk half of the blue cheese with the sour cream, lemon juice, vinegar and cayenne in a bowl until smooth. Fold in the chives; cover and chill until ready to serve.
  • Make the salad: Brush the cut side of the peaches with the remaining 1/4 cup infused oil. Heat the grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the peaches, cut-side down, 3 minutes. Flip and grill the other side 1 minute to soften. Remove and slice into wedges. Toss the greens and herbs in a large bowl and divide among plates. Top with the steak and peaches; drizzle with the dressing and top with the remaining blue cheese. Season with black pepper.

GRILLED PEPPERCORN STEAK AND CARAMELIZED PECAN SALAD WITH CABERNET-CHERRY VINAIGRETTE



Grilled Peppercorn Steak and Caramelized Pecan Salad with Cabernet-Cherry Vinaigrette image

This is a summer favorite that I served in many restaurants, inspired by my 'oops, the Cabernet wine has turned again in the heat,' moments. This is usually the meal, but it may also be an appetizer salad as well. I offered it as both in my restaurants. The dressing and pecans keep for a few weeks unrefrigerated, and I often make these in bulk in advance for several meals. A simple dish, easily made by any level cook, it is a stylish, beautiful, and delectable entree salad fit for company.

Time 2h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon grainy brown mustard
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons port wine
1 pound beef top sirloin, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 4 portions
2 cups Cabernet Sauvignon wine
½ cup dried cherries
1 teaspoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup pecan pieces
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
7 ounces mesclun salad greens with spinach and/or arugula
1 carrot, peeled and shaved
4 radishes, thinly shaved

Steps:

  • Whisk together 1 tablespoon olive oil, brown mustard, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, cracked pepper, and port wine in a bowl; pour marinade into a resealable plastic bag. Add the beef, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (up to 5 days if necessary).
  • Bring Cabernet wine and dried cherries to a boil in a saucepan, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until wine has reduced to about 1/3 of its original volume, about 20 minutes. Dissolve 1 teaspoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt into the wine mixture and pour in extra-virgin olive oil. Remove from heat and let dressing cool.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a sheet pan.
  • Toss pecan pieces in a bowl with water, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl until thoroughly coated. Spread coated pecans into the prepared sheet pan.
  • Bake pecans in the preheated oven until the coating adheres to the nuts and pecans are fragrant and brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from pan and immediately transfer to a large heatproof plate to finish cooling. Be careful, candied pecans are extremely hot. Set pecans aside to cool.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for very high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove steak pieces from marinade, shake off excess marinade, and grill until steaks are seared and done to your desired degree of rareness, 1 1/2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a steak should read 145 degrees F (65 degrees C) for medium-well. Discard used marinade. Let steaks stand for 5 minutes after grilling before cutting into thin slices.
  • To serve, mix baby greens with shaved carrot and radishes in a salad bowl and divide onto 4 large serving plates. Lay slices of beef in a spoke pattern on top of greens and sprinkle each salad generously with candied pecans. Whisk dressing and drizzle over salads, distributing a few cherries onto each salad.

  • Place the trimmed steak in a shallow dish and spoon the marinade over it. Turn to coat the other side as well. Cover with a plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, turning the steak a couple of times to ensure an even distribution of the marinade.
  • Remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it stand at room temperature for 20 minutes. Prepare the grill and, when ready, grill the steak over medium-high, direct heat, for about 4-5 minutes. Using tongs, turn the steak once and cook for 3-4 more minutes or so, depending on how you like the steak done. Place the steak on a cutting board, cover loosely with foil, and let it stand for 4 minutes. Slice into thin strips.
  • Prepare the dressing by placing all the ingredients in a jar and shaking it well.
  • Arrange the greens in a platter and top them with the steak, the peaches and the goat cheese. Drizzle with the dressing, mix lightly, scatter the pistachios over it and serve.

STEAK SALAD WITH GRILLED PEACHES



Steak Salad With Grilled Peaches image

Grilling fruit really brings out the natural sugars in them and they take on a whole new dimension. Don't use canned or very ripe peaches for this recipe or you will have a big mess on your grill. I like to buy extra peaches and the citrus fruits when I make this so I can juice them in my Lalanne juicer to make a tart sorbet. The recipe for the dressing alone is here Recipe #329371
