Categories     Steak

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 (10 -12 ounce) beef shell steaks (or strip steaks)
1 garlic clove, bruised, peeled
1/4 cup olive oil (or as needed)
1 cup cracked peppercorns, preferably a blend of black and white (approximate amount) or 1 cup fresh coarse ground black pepper (approximate amount)
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Pat steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of each steak with garlic, then brush lightly with olive oil.
  • Line large baking sheet or tray with waxed paper. Spread thin layer of pepper on plate, lightly coat both sides of steak with pepper, and place on waxed paper. Repeat with remaining steaks and additional pepper.
  • Meanwhile, prepare charcoal for grilling (or heat broiler).
  • Just before grilling, lightly salt both sides of steaks. Grill steaks over hot fire or broil 4 inches from heat until browned and crusty on outside but still pink at center, about 5 minutes each side for medium-rare.
  • Transfer steaks to serving plates and serve at once.

I've tried this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The key is to use a good quality steak and to not overcook it. I also like to add a bit of garlic to the marinade for extra flavor.

The steak was a little tough, but the flavor was great.

This recipe was amazing! I've made it twice now and both times it turned out perfect. The steak was so juicy and flavorful, and the peppercorn crust was the perfect touch. I will definitely be making this again and again.
