Provided by C Hills

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Beef     Steaks

Time 25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

¼ cup flour
¼ cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
6 cube steaks
2 tablespoons butter, or as needed
1 cup milk, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Whisk flour, cornstarch, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a shallow bowl. Spread 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture onto a plate; press each cube steak into flour mixture to coat completely.
  • Place coated steaks on a work surface and pound each several times with a meat tenderizer on each side to pound flour into steak. Pound each steak a second time to further incorporate flour mixture into the meat.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until skillet is about 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cook steaks in hot butter until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer steaks and any stray pieces of meat to a plate and tent with aluminum foil to keep warm. Let skillet cool briefly.

Whisk 1 tablespoon flour mixture into hot milk until gravy has a cream-like consistency, 10 to 15 minutes. Add more flour mixture as necessary to thicken gravy. Transfer any steak scraps back into the skillet and season gravy with salt and black pepper.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 17

All-purpose flour, for dusting
2 frozen puff pastry sheets (from a 17.3-ounce box), thawed
Three 1-inch long cornichons, halved length-wise
Six 1-inch square pieces ham steak (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1 1/2 ounces shredded gruyere cheese (about 1/2 cup)
18 mozzarella pearls
3 teaspoons prepared pesto
18 slices sun-dried tomatoes, from 3 to 4 tomatoes
6 whole candied pecans
6 small red grapes, halved
Six 1-inch square pieces brie cheese, about 1/2-inch-thick (about 1 ounce)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup cream cheese, at room temperature
1 scallion, thinly sliced
Zest of 1 medium lemon (about 1 teaspoon)
Six extra-small (91/110) cooked shrimp, tails removed
1 large egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Lightly flour a work surface and roll out both puff pastry sheets into 12-inch squares. Lay half of 1 piece of pastry over a 12-compartment ice cube tray (the remaining half of the pastry will hang off the tray) then gently use the back of your fingers (or the handle of a wooden spoon) to press the dough down into each compartment of the tray. Repeat with the remaining pastry and tray.
  • Fill 6 of the ice cube compartments in the same row each with 1 piece of cornichon, 1 piece of ham and 1 tablespoon gruyere cheese. Fill the next 6 ice cube compartments in the same row each with 3 mozzarella pearls, 1/2 teaspoon pesto and 2 slices sun-dried tomatoes. Fill the next 6 ice cube compartments in the same row each with 1 candied pecan, 2 red grape halves, 1 piece of brie and a pinch of black pepper. Stir together the cream cheese, scallion, 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl and stir until completely combined. Fill the last 6 ice cube compartments in the same row each with 1 shrimp then a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture.
  • Brush the edges of the puff pastry with the beaten egg then fold the puff pastry over the ice cube tray so that it completely covers the filling. Cut the excess puff pastry from around the upper edges of the ice cube trays then use your fingers to press the dough together so that it is sealed. Put the ice cube trays in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Position a rack in the center and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Use your fingers to gently loosen the puff pastry from the ice cube trays then flip out onto a cutting board. Use a knife to trim the edges of the dough to 1/4-inch-wide. Cut in between each ice cube compartment to free each filled compartment. Use a fork to crimp the edges of all the ice cube bites, making sure to keep the flavors separate.
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment. Put the ice cube bites on the baking sheet, keeping the flavors separate). Brush the beaten egg on top of the puff pastry then sprinkle the ham bites with the remaining gruyere cheese, lay a slice of sun-dried tomato on top of the pesto bites, sprinkle black pepper on the brie bites.

Tips:

  • Use ripe avocados: Ripe avocados are creamier and have a richer flavor than unripe avocados.
  • Choose the right type of avocado: There are many different types of avocados, each with its own unique flavor and texture. For cubing, a firm avocado like the Hass avocado is a good choice.
  • Score the avocado: Before cutting the avocado, score it lengthwise and widthwise. This will help you to cut it evenly and prevent the flesh from sticking to the knife.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to cut the avocado and prevent the flesh from becoming bruised.
  • Cut the avocado in half: Cut the avocado in half lengthwise. Then, twist the two halves in opposite directions to separate them.
  • Remove the pit: Use a spoon to scoop out the pit from the avocado. Be careful not to cut yourself on the pit.
  • Peel the avocado: Use your fingers or a spoon to peel the skin off the avocado. The skin should come off easily.
  • Cube the avocado: Cut the avocado flesh into cubes. The size of the cubes is up to you.
  • Store the avocado: If you are not using the avocado right away, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To prevent the avocado from browning, you can sprinkle it with lemon juice or lime juice.

Conclusion:

Cubing an avocado is a quick and easy task that can be done in just a few minutes. By following the tips above, you can ensure that your avocado cubes are perfect for your next recipe. Whether you are using them in a salad, a sandwich, or a dip, cubed avocados are a delicious and versatile ingredient that can add flavor and texture to any dish.
