GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH STICKY BARBECUE ONIONS



Grilled Skirt Steak with Sticky Barbecue Onions image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 yellow onions, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces ketchup
2 ounces apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
2 pounds skirt steak, cleaned
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the cutting board
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon sweet paprika

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat.
  • For the sticky barbecue onions: Heat a cast-iron skillet over direct heat. Melt the butter. Add the onions with a pinch of salt and cook until they begin to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Whisk together the ketchup, vinegar, mustard, sugar, cayenne, cumin and paprika in a small bowl (see Cook's Note). Add the sauce to the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until the liquid reduces and begins to get sticky, 8 to 10 minutes. Move over indirect heat to keep warm while you cook your steak.
  • For the steak: Sprinkle the steak with salt and pepper on both sides and bring to room temperature. Drizzle the steak with the oil and sprinkle with the oregano and paprika on both sides. Place the steak over direct heat and cook until it gets a nice char, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  • Add a splash of oil, a pinch of salt and some pepper to a cutting board. Place the steak on the seasoned oil on the cutting board, flip and rest 5 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain and serve topped with the onions.
  • (Alternatively, you can cook the onions over medium-high heat on a stovetop, and the steak in a grill pan or cast-iron skillet over high heat on a stovetop.)

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

For the onion marinade:
1/2 medium yellow onion, coarsely chopped
1 small garlic clove, peeled
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoons water
For the skirt steak:
2 pounds skirt steak, silver skin trimmed away
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Smoked sea salt, for finishing
Ox's Chimichurri, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the onion marinade:
  • Combine the onion, garlic, 1/4 cup of the oil, and water in a blender; blend until smooth. Put the skirt steak in a large resealable plastic bag or baking dish and pour in the onion mixture, coating both sides. Cover or wrap the meat well so the onion scent does not permeate your refrigerator; chill for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • To make the skirt steak:
  • Prepare a grill to medium-high heat.
  • Remove the steak from the marinade and season both sides with the kosher salt and pepper. Transfer the meat to the grill and let cook until one side is well seared, 3 minutes. Flip and cook for 2 minutes more, for rare to medium-rare. At this point, remove the steak from the grill and let rest for 2 minutes to allow the carryover heat to give it a more even doneness. Finally, return the steak to the grill and cook for 1 minute more per side (this guarantees this thin cut of steak will be served hot). (Add another minute of cooking on the second side for medium doneness.) Remove the skirt steak from the grill and let rest 1 to 2 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Cut each steak with the grain into three sections. Turn each piece to slice against the grain at a 45-degree angle. Slice into 1/4-inch pieces on a slight bias against the grain. You should get about 5 slices per cut piece, about 15 slices total. Transfer the meat to a warmed plate. Garnish with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and smoked sea salt and serve with the chimichurri.

Time 8h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 33

3/4 cup olive oil
6 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1 ancho chile, coarsely chopped
1 New Mexican chile, coarsely chopped
1 lime, zested and coarsely chopped
1 pound flank steak
Salt and freshly ground pepper
12 (6-inch) flour tortillas
1 pound white cheddar, coarsely grated
Grilled Onions, recipe follows
8 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
Ancho chile powder
Wild Mushroom Relish, recipe follows
Chopped cilantro
Roasted Red Pepper Sauce, recipe follows
Olive oil
2 red onions, peeled and thinly sliced
Salt and pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, oyster) coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme
3 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 red bell peppers, roasted, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons chopped red onion
2 teaspoons chipotle puree
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons honey
3/4 cup olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Combine oil, garlic, chiles, and lime zest in a large shallow baking dish. Add steak and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Preheat grill or grill pan over high heat. Remove steak from marinade, season with salt and pepper and grill for 2 to 3 minutes on either side until golden brown and cooked to medium-rare doneness. Let rest 5 minutes and slice on the bias into 1/2 inch thick slices. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Place 8 tortillas on a flat work surface. Top each tortilla with 2 ounces of the cheddar. Divide the onions and steak over the cheese. Crumble 1 ounce of the blue cheese on top of the steak. Stack the tortillas to make 4 (2-layer) quesadillas and top each with the remaining tortillas. Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon of ancho chile powder. Carefully transfer the quesadillas to a baking sheet and bake in the oven until golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 5 to 7 minutes. Serve each with a large dollop of the Mushroom Relish on top and garnish with chopped cilantro and Roasted Red Pepper Sauce.
  • For the grilled onions: Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions, season with salt and pepper and cook until soft and caramelized, about 25 to 30 minutes. For the wild mushroom relish: Heat oil in a large saute pan over high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden brown. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and cook until completely reduced. Stir in the vinegar, thyme and parsley and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Place peppers, onion, chipotle, lime juice and honey in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the oil and blend until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of steak: Look for tender cuts like ribeye, strip, or flank steak.
  • Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes: This helps tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: Experiment with different combinations of herbs, spices, and liquids to create a marinade that suits your taste.
  • Don't overcook the steak: Cook the steak to your desired doneness, but be careful not to overcook it, as this will make it tough.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Serve the steak with grilled onions: Grilled onions are the perfect complement to marinated steak, adding a sweet and smoky flavor.

Marinated steak with grilled onions is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can create a steak that is tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Grilled onions are the perfect side dish for this dish, adding a sweet and smoky flavor.
