Best 4 Cowboy Steaks With Onions Recipes

PAN-SEARED STEAK AND ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer the onions to a bowl and set aside.
• Generously season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of the oil to the skillet and fry the steak over medium heat, turning once, until browned, about 6 minutes per side for medium. Transfer the steak to a serving platter and cover to keep warm.
• Add the bourbon to the skillet and, over medium heat, scrape up any bits that cling to the pan. Allow the liquor to simmer until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add the onions and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and stir until the butter is melted. Reduce the heat and gently simmer until the onions are heated through, about 2 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper and stir in any juices that have run off from the steak.
• To serve, cut the steak into 1/4-inch-thick slices and top with the onions.

COWBOY STEAKS WITH ONIONS

Steps:

• Combine chile powder, cayenne, cumin and oregano with 1 tablespoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper. Rub the steaks all over with the spice mixture and place on a platter until they come to room temperature.
• Light the grill or set oven to broil and place rack on top level. Lightly oil a broiling pan and place in oven to heat. Brush the onions with oil and season with salt and black pepper. If using a grill put onions over the hot fire until charred, about 8 minutes. If broiling, set aside.
• Grill the steaks over the hot fire for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare or broil the steaks 6-7 minutes a side on heated broiling pan along with oil coated onions. Place steaks on plates and top with the onions. Serve Yucca Fries (Yucca Fries (Yuca) Recipe #153368) on the side.

CAST-IRON COWBOY STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat grill to 400°F to 450°F (high) heat. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet on grill, covered with grill lid, 15 minutes. Sprinkle salt and pepper generously over steak.
• Add oil to skillet. (Oil should smoke.) Using tongs, place steak in skillet, and cook on grill, without grill lid, 10 minutes or until dark brown and crusty. Turn steak on fatty edge in skillet, holding upright with tongs, and cook 2 minutes. Place steak, uncooked side down, in skillet. Cook on grill, covered with grill lid, 8 to 10 minutes or to desired degree of doneness. (We recommend an internal temperature of 120°F to 125°F for medium-rare; temperature will rise as steak rests.)
• Add butter, herbs, and garlic to side of skillet, and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until butter foams. Tilt skillet slightly, and spoon butter mixture over steak 20 times (being careful not to splatter). Transfer steak, herbs, and garlic to a platter; let stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Slice against the grain.
