Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

4 boneless rib-eye steaks, 10 to 12 ounces each, about 1 1/2 inches thick
Extra-virgin olive oil, about 1/2 cup, divided
2 tablespoons steak seasoning (recommended Montreal Steak Seasoning by McCormick) or other brand grill seasoning
4 stems fresh oregano, stripped of leaves
5 sprigs fresh sage leaves, stripped
6 stems fresh thyme leaves, stripped
1 generous handful fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
3 cloves garlic, popped from skins
1 medium red onion, 1/2 finely chopped, 1/2 thinly sliced
1 lemon
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar, eyeball it
Splash water
3 tablespoons chipotle in adobo, chopped with sauce or, 1 tablespoon powdered chipotle chili powder
2 large bundles, 1 pound, spinach leaves
1 1/2 pounds combined weight shiitakes and baby portobellos (crimni mushrooms), thinly sliced
Salt and pepper
Worcestershire sauce, for seasoning steaks
4 thick slices whole grain crusty bread
Butter, softened
Chives, chopped or snipped, to garnish bread

Steps:

  • Pat rib-eyes dry. Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil across each side of the steaks then season them with grill seasoning blend and reserve.
  • Prepare chimichurri: pile the herbs together and finely chop. Coarsely chop 2 cloves of the garlic, reserving one large clove left cracked away from skin but whole. Add coarse chopped garlic to herbs and mill them together, chopping even finer, then transfer to a small bowl. Add in the finely chopped red onions and the zest of 1 lemon. Once the lemon has been zested, cut it into wedges and reserve. To the herbs and onions, add 3 tablespoons (eyeball it) red wine vinegar, a splash of water and about 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil. Stir to combine the chimichurri and reserve.
  • Fill sink or large bowl with cold water. Remove stems from spinach and add to water. Agitate the leaves to release the grit attached to the leaves. Repeat this process, testing leaves as you go until they are free of sand. Dry in a salad spinner or on layers of paper towels.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan, then add in the chipotle in abobo, sliced onions and mushrooms. If you are using powdered chipotle, add onions and mushrooms first then season with the powder. Cook the mushrooms and onions, stirring frequently, 10 minutes. Do not add salt and pepper ¿ the salt will draw liquid out of the mushrooms, slowing up the browning process.
  • Heat a heavy bottomed pan and sear the steaks for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side for medium rare to medium. Add 2 minutes for medium to medium well doneness. Once cooked, let meat rest 5 or 10 minutes for juice to redistribute.
  • Once the mushrooms are tender, coarsely chop the spinach and fold into the pan in bunches until wilted and incorporated fully. Season the mixture with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
  • Char bread under broiler, rub it with the remaining clove of garlic, butter the bread and sprinkle with chives. Place the toasted bread on plates and top each slice with a whole steak. The bread will catch meat juices as you dine. Top the steaks with a few shakes of Worcestershire and generous spoonfuls of chimichurri. Serve "mountains" of smoky mushrooms and spinach alongside the steaks.

LIME CHIMICHURRI



Lime Chimichurri image

If you like lime, parsley and garlic you'll love this tangy sauce for any type of meat, fish or chicken - I even tried it on pork and it was yummy. I use Via Nueva brand lemon salt (Sal Con Limon) and just love it on almost everything. You can order it online at vianueva.com using paypal. I save the Chimichurri sauce in a jar with a tight fitting lid for up to 2 weeks, thats all its ever lasted before being eaten. Fresh squeezed limes add alot to the flavor. You can use less olive oil too.

Categories     Brazilian

Time 20m

Yield 2 cups, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bunch fresh flat leaf parsley, chopped
1 cup olive oil
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons white vinegar
6 garlic cloves, chopped
1 shallot, chopped
1 teaspoon salt (I use lemon salt, Sal Con Limon)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper or 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Steps:

  • Parsley should be chopped up pretty small and should equal about 1 cup. You can chop the garlic and shallots in a little food processor if you have one but I would hand chop the parsley.
  • Combine and mix all the ingredients. Reserve half of the marinade for dipping. Marinade your steak (or whatever your grilling) in the other half for as little as 1 hour but overnight is best for beef.
  • Grill your steak (or whatever your grilling) and serve the reserved marinade for dipping or topping.

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 x 200g rump steaks, fat removed
2 long ciabatta rolls
2 handfuls of rocket
30ml sunflower oil
270g shop-bought frozen fries
Cajun spice mix
70g mayonnaise
1 tsp chipotle chilli paste
½ lime, zested and juiced
1 banana shallot, peeled and roughly chopped
1 red chilli, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
1½ tbsp sherry vinegar
small bunch of parsley
small bunch of coriander
50ml extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to its highest setting. For the fries, pour the sunflower oil into a baking tray and put in the oven for 15 mins to get hot. Reduce the temperature to 220C/200C fan/gas 8. Tip the fries into the oil, turn to coat, and cook for 20 mins. Add the Cajun spice mix and return to the oven for 15 mins until golden and crisp.
  • Meanwhile, make the mayo by mixing all the ingredients together in a bowl. Set aside.
  • For the chimichurri-style sauce, blitz all the ingredients together until you have a smooth sauce, then season to taste. Set aside.
  • Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Rub the steaks with salt only (pepper will catch and burn), put the steaks in the pan and cook for 3 mins on each side (for medium). Remove from the pan, cover with foil and leave to rest for 10 mins.
  • Halve the ciabatta rolls, toast in the same griddle pan that you cooked the steak in, cut-side down, and spread one half of each with the chipotle mayo. Slice the steak into strips, divide between the ciabattas, drizzle over the chimichurri and add a little rocket. Serve with the fries and any leftover mayo.
