STEAK & SHAKE CHILI
Steak and Shake was a franchise started in the Midwest. My father would take me there on special occasions. I loved their chili! This is a chili which would be ideal for children. It is very mild with a slight sweetness. I found this recipe on the internet @ I dunno4recipes. The recipe origionally called for 2 (15 ounce) cans of kidney beans drained, but I prefer the taste of chili beans better

VELVET STEAK WITH KOREAN CHILI BUTTER
Velveting is a technique that is usually used for stir-fries, but I decided to try it on pan-fried top sirloin steaks, and my experiment was a great success! The theory behind velveting is that the egg white, cornstarch, and rice wine mixture coats the surface of the meat, locking in moisture and giving it a tender, velvety texture. Top sirloin is lean and doesn't have a lot of fat, but these steaks--thanks to the velveting--were unbelievably juicy! Serve with rice or pasta to soak up the juices.

Steps:
- Whisk egg whites, cornstarch, rice wine, and soy sauce for marinade together in a bowl until very smooth and foamy.
- Trim silver skin from sirloin steaks. Place steaks between 2 pieces of plastic wrap on a cutting board and pound to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Transfer steaks to a rimmed plate and lightly sprinkle both sides with kosher salt.
- Pour marinade over top and flip a few times to make sure steaks are well coated on both sides. Cover with plastic wrap, or transfer steaks and marinade to a zip-top bag, and refrigerate for 6 to 12 hours, flipping once or twice while marinating.
- Mix butter, chili paste, salt, and green onions for chili butter together in a small bowl. Taste and adjust if needed. Set aside at either room temperature or in the refrigerator until needed.
- Remove steaks from the refrigerator and toss a few more times in the marinade.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add steak and pan-fry until meat springs back to the touch and is medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side, or to desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
- Remove from heat and place steaks on warm plates. Let rest for 3 to 4 minutes. Top with chili butter and green onions.

FIESTA STEAK CHILI
This is a basic recipe for non-traditional chili using steak. My wife is allergic to chili powder, so I don't use any in this recipe, but you are welcome to add some if you like. This is a very tame, full-flavor, colorful chili recipe that even the kids will like. There are plenty of other variations that you can use with this basic recipe, please change at will. Things we have tried include adding three or four fresh jalapenos, or adding Tabasco® habanaro sauce, or cilantro, or fresh tomatoes, or using red, yellow, orange, and green peppers, or hamburger instead of a steak or roast. Serve with tortilla chips, cheese and sour cream.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast or flank steak are good options for chili because they have a lot of flavor and connective tissue, which breaks down during cooking and creates a rich, thick broth.
- Brown the beef before adding it to the chili: This will help to develop the flavor and give the chili a nice color.
- Use a variety of beans: This will add different flavors and textures to the chili. Some good options include kidney beans, black beans, and pinto beans.
- Add some vegetables: Vegetables will add sweetness, color, and nutrition to the chili. Good options include onions, peppers, tomatoes, and corn.
- Season the chili well: Chili should have a complex flavor, so don't be afraid to use a variety of spices. Some good options include chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and oregano.
- Let the chili simmer for a while: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the chili, the better it will taste.
- Serve the chili with your favorite toppings: Some good options include cheese, sour cream, onions, and cilantro.
Conclusion:
Steak chili is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold day. It is also a great way to use up leftover steak. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious steak chili that your whole family will enjoy.
