Time 5h20m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/2 lbs stew meat
3 Tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
1 (20 ounce) can of pineapple chunks with juice
2 beef bouillon cubes
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 medium onions, chopped
1 (10 ounce) can mild Rotel tomatoes
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup water
2 Tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • In a gallon size ziploc bag, add season salt, paprika, and ground ginger. Shake bag to mix. Add stew meat to seasoning, close bag and shake until all pieces are lightly covered. In a large skillet, add olive oil. Heat pan over medium heat. Once pan is hot, add stew meat. This may require a few batches (it took me 3 batches to do all of the meat). Sear the beef on each side. DO NOT FULLY COOK. Just get a nice sear on it to seal in the flavor. Once meat has a nice color, transfer to crock pot. Repeat with remaining batches. Add to crock pot, garlic, pineapple with juice, bouillon cubes, vinegar, onions and Rotel.. Cook on low for 4 - 6 hours (depending on your crock pot), until beef is cooked through and tender. In a small bowl combine brown sugar, cornstarch, water and soy sauce. Pour this over the beef, stir and cook on high for 30 minutes - 1 hour, or until mixture thickens. Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.

TUSCAN FLANK STEAK



Tuscan Flank Steak image

I've only been to Tuscany once, but I do remember a grilled steak coming off a charcoal fire, which was then sliced and splashed with olive oil, lemon, and rosemary. While I'm sure my version is far from traditional, it's really tasty and the very user-friendly flank steak is the perfect cut.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup chopped fresh rosemary
6 cloves garlic
⅓ cup olive oil
¼ cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon salt
1 (1 1/2-pound) flank steak, trimmed of excess fat
⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 pinch salt
1 sprig fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Combine 1/2 cup chopped fresh rosemary, garlic, 1/3 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup lemon juice, black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and set marinade aside.
  • Pierce the steak with a fork 20 to 30 times. Place in a shallow baking dish. Pour marinade over steak and flip to coat both sides. Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours.
  • Combine 1/3 cup olive oil, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon minced rosemary, 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt in a jar. Cover and shake the dressing to combine. Shake again before using.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove steak from marinade; scrape off any chunks of marinade. Discard used marinade. Season steak with salt and black pepper.
  • Place steak on the preheated grill and cook until browned on the outside and red on the inside, about 6 to 8 minutes per side. Place 2 tablespoons of the olive oil-lemon juice dressing in a small bowl. Use rosemary sprig to baste the steak while it cooks. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a steak should read 125 degrees F (52 degrees C) for rare.
  • Remove steak to a platter and allow to rest about 6 minutes before slicing. Cut in half lengthwise, then into 1/4-inch-thick slices at an angle against the grain. Drizzle with additional dressing.

Tips:

  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak for at least 30 minutes will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: Flank steak should be cooked over high heat for a short period of time. This will help to keep it tender and juicy.
  • Don't overcook the steak: Flank steak is a thin cut of meat, so it is important not to overcook it. Cook it for just a few minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the steak rest before serving: After cooking, let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to keep the juices in the meat.
