Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 to 11/2 pounds flank steak
1/2 cup chopped scallions, light green and white parts only (about 5 scallions)
1/4 cup fresh chopped chives (from 1 bunch)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil plus more for cooking the steak
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon lemon zest and 2 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
1 tablespoon lime zest and 1 tablespoon lime juice (from 1 to 2 limes)
2 teaspoons whole grain mustard
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Remove the flank steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking to bring it to room temperature.
  • In a medium bowl, add the scallions, chives, olive oil, basil, parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, lime zest, lime juice, mustard, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Stir to combine and set aside.
  • Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil onto one side of the steak and use a silicone brush to spread it all over the steak. Sprinkle with a nice pinch of kosher salt and pepper. Transfer the meat to the grill pan, seasoning side down. Drizzle the other side of the steak with a small amount of olive oil and once again brush it to cover and sprinkle with salt and pepper. For medium-rare, cook the steak until the internal temperature is 135 degrees F, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove the steak to a plate and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Slice the steak against the grain. Add the slices to a platter and spoon on the lemon-lime herb sauce. Serve extra sauce on the side.

LEMONY FLANK STEAK SKEWERS WITH LEMON DIPPING SAUCE



Lemony Flank Steak Skewers With Lemon Dipping Sauce image

Since I make this recipe for my BBQ get togethers, the amounts I have listed will make a ton of skewers, you might want to reduce the recipe to half and only use two steaks which should give you about 20-25 skewers (yield is only estimated) or make the complete recipe to feed a crowd! The amounts stated for the dipping sauce will yield about 4-1/2 cups, you might also want to reduce to half. To save time slice the meat a day ahead, and to make slicing easier, partially freeze the steaks before slicing for about 15 minutes. Plan ahead the dipping sauce needs to be chilled for a minimum of three hours before serving, or make 24 hours in advance, and the beef strips needs to marinade for 8 hours. This recipe also works well using pork strips! This is delicious, and a real crowd-pleaser!

SPICED LAMB SKEWERS WITH LEMONY ONIONS



Spiced Lamb Skewers With Lemony Onions image

This is the type of scalable recipe that is ideal for feeding large groups of people in a short period of time. More snack than a meal, the idea is to build a table of these lightly spiced, grilled skewers (if you don't like lamb, then pork, beef or chicken all work) and fill out the rest of your table with store-bought ingredients like pickles, olives, yogurt and flatbread for sopping it all up.

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 to 2 pounds boneless lamb leg or shoulder, excess fat trimmed, meat cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon ground sumac (optional)
5 tablespoons fresh lemon or lime juice
1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
Olive oil, for drizzling
1 cup cilantro, tender leaves and stems
1/2 cup pitted black olives, finely chopped
Lavash, pita or flatbread, for serving
Pickled cabbage, cucumbers, peppers or a mix, for serving

Steps:

  • Season lamb with salt and pepper. Add cumin and turmeric and toss to coat. (This can be done up to 24 hours ahead, if you like.)
  • If you're using a charcoal grill, build the fire so it's screaming hot. This lamb is to be cooked hot and fast so it can stay nicely medium-rare, so the hotter the better. If you're using a gas grill, set it on high. Bring a clean platter, cutting board or baking dish out to the grill for the skewers to rest in after cooking.
  • Combine onion, sumac (if using) and 3 tablespoons lemon juice; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Set aside.
  • Combine yogurt and remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Skewer the lamb onto wooden or metal skewers, 2 to 4 pieces per skewer.
  • Once the grill is hot, cook the skewers on all sides until deeply browned and lightly charred all over, 2 to 3 minutes per side (less time for smaller pieces), moving the skewers around as needed to prevent excessive flare-ups. (If you've trimmed most of the fat away from the lamb, the flare-ups shouldn't be too bad.)
  • Transfer the skewers to the platter, cutting board or baking dish to rest for a few minutes and drizzle with olive oil. Serve with the dressed onions, lemony yogurt, cilantro, olives, lavash and any pickled vegetables or peppers you like.

Tips:

  • To save time, use a store-bought lemon-pepper seasoning blend instead of making your own.
  • If you don't have wooden skewers, you can use metal skewers or even toothpicks. Just be sure to soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
  • To make the lemon dipping sauce, you can use either fresh lemon juice or bottled lemon juice. If using bottled lemon juice, be sure to use unsweetened lemon juice.
  • For a more flavorful dipping sauce, add a teaspoon of minced garlic or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • Serve the lemon-flank steak skewers with your favorite sides, such as rice, potatoes, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Lemony flank steak skewers are a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The marinade helps to tenderize the flank steak, while the lemon-pepper seasoning gives it a delicious citrusy flavor. The lemon dipping sauce is the perfect complement to the skewers, adding a bright and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
