Best 5 Pan Fried Skirt Steaks With Shallot Butter Recipes

SKIRT STEAK WITH SHALLOT-THYME BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare a gas or charcoal grill; the fire should be so hot you can hold your hand over it for only a couple of seconds.
• Meanwhile, cream the butter with a fork, adding thyme, chives, shallot, 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and the vinegar or juice.
• Grill the steak, 2 minutes a side for rare, about a minute longer per side for medium-rare. As it cooks, season with salt and pepper.
• Spread each steak with about a tablespoon of the flavored butter, and serve. Remaining butter can be wrapped and refrigerated or frozen.

PAN-FRIED SKIRT STEAKS WITH SHALLOT BUTTER

Steps:

• Remove any excess fat from the steaks. Sprinkle the meat on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Choose a black cast-iron skillet large enough to hold the steaks in one layer and brush it with oil.
• Heat the skillet over high heat. Add the steaks side by side and cook about 3 to 4 minutes or until thoroughly browned on one side. Turn and continue cooking until lightly browned, about 3 minutes for medium rare.
• Transfer the steaks to a warm platter and keep warm. Pour off the fat from the skillet.
• Add 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet and when melted, add the shallots, garlic and thyme. Cook briefly until wilted, but do not burn. Add the vinegar, cook briefly and swirl in the remaining butter and the parsley.
• Remove skillet from heat and add the steaks and any juices that have accumulated on the platter. Blend well, and serve immediately with the shallot butter over the steaks.

SKIRT STEAK WITH SHALLOTS

Steps:

• To cook the steak, in a heavy-duty skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Add the meat to the skillet without crowding, in batches, if necessary, and cook on both sides until well browned and medium-rare, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a warm plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm while preparing the sauce.
• To prepare the sauce, return the pan to the cooktop over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and the shallots. Cook until the shallots are soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the vinegar and stir to combine. Cook until the vinegar evaporates, 30 to 45 seconds. Add the red wine and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter; swirl to coat. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper.
• To serve, slice the steak into thin strips against the grain. Overlap the slices on a plate and pour over the red wine glaze.

GRILLED OR FRIED SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the lemon juice and mustard. Trim away most of the fat from the steaks, and rub with the mustard marinade. Place into a resealable bag, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, and up to 24 hours.
• Preheat a grill or large skillet for medium-high heat.
• Grill or fry steaks for about 5 minutes per side, or to your desired degree of doneness. Remove from the heat, and let the meat rest for 5 to 10 minutes to let the juices settle. Cut each steak along the grain into 3 or 4 pieces. Serve with blue cheese dressing.

PAN-FRIED STEAKS WITH SHALLOT-GORGONZOLA BUTTER

Steps:

• Using fork, mix 4 tablespoons butter, Gorgonzola cheese, shallots and chives in small bowl until well blended. Season with salt and pepper. Divide mixture into 8 equal pieces; form into balls. Cover and refrigerate until cold. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in each of 2 heavy large skillets over high heat. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Add 2 steaks to each skillet and cook to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to plates. Top each with 2 balls of shallot-Gorgonzola butter and serve.
