Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the chutney:
1/2 grapefruit, thinly sliced, seeds removed
8 ounces kumquats, sliced, seeds removed
1 shallot, finely chopped
2/3 cup sugar
Pinch of kosher salt
1 tablespoon Champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar
For the steak and assembly:
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
2 tablespoons ground coffee
2 tablespoons kosher salt
4 teaspoons light brown sugar
4 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil (for grilling)
2 hanger steaks, center membrane removed, each cut into 4 pieces
Special Equipment
A spice mill or a mortar and pestle

Steps:

  • Make the chutney:
  • Bring grapefruit, kumquats, shallot, sugar, salt, and 1/4 cup water to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally and lowering heat if needed, until citrus is soft and liquid is syrupy, 45-60 minutes. Stir in vinegar and let cool. Cover and chill.
  • For the steak and assembly:
  • Toast coriander seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool, then finely grind in spice mill or mortar and pestle. Mix ground coriander, coffee, salt, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil grate. Season steaks generously with rub (you'll have some left over). Grill steaks, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and cooked to desired doneness, 8-10 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes, then slice against the grain. Serve with citrus chutney.
  • Do Ahead
  • Chutney can be made 1 week ahead. Keep chilled. Rub can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.

GRILLED CITRUS STEAKS

Categories     Beef     Citrus     Low Carb     Grill/Barbecue

Yield Makes 2-4 servings, depending on your appetite.

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 Steaks
8 oz orange juice
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp tarragon
pepper

Steps:

  • Puncture your steak at 1 inch intervals, then soak it in a combination of the pepper, tarragon, orang and lemon juices for an hour. Sear on the grill on high heat, brushing on more of the mixture after turning.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of steak: For grilled citrus steaks, flank steak, skirt steak, or hanger steak are good choices. These cuts are relatively thin and cook quickly, making them ideal for grilling.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a citrus-based marinade helps to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. The marinade should contain acidic ingredients, such as citrus juice or vinegar, as well as herbs and spices.
  • Preheat your grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before grilling the steaks. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the meat while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
  • Grill the steaks: Grill the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Be careful not to overcook the steaks, as this will make them tough.
  • Let the steaks rest: Once the steaks are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.

Conclusion:

Grilled citrus steaks are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight dinner. By following these tips, you can ensure that your grilled citrus steaks are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection.
