GRILLED RIB EYE STEAK WITH ROMAINE MARMALADE AND WATERCRESS



Grilled Rib Eye Steak with Romaine Marmalade and Watercress image

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Categories     main-dish

Time 14h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

One 24-ounce bone-in rib eye chop, about 2 1/2 inches thick
Extra virgin olive oil
Large grain sea salt
Cracked pepper
French butter
4 bunches organic watercress, stems removed (about 2 cups leaves)
2 whole leaves romaine lettuce
1 small clove garlic
1/4 bunch fresh cilantro, trimmed
1/4 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, trimmed
Fresh lemon juice
Fine sea salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For the steak: Sprinkle the steak liberally with olive oil, salt and pepper; make sure the entire steak is covered. Wrap lightly and place in the refrigerator for 12 hours.
  • Get the grill hot 1 hour before cooking (a charcoal or wood fire, preferably with hardwood); the embers must be burned down and glowing and there should be no flames at all. Remove the steak from the refrigerator and leave at room temperature for the same hour that the grill is getting ready.
  • When ready to grill, place the steak on the center of the hot grill and rotate left and right to get proper grill marks. Do this for both sides, about 10 minutes. When this is done, move the steak to a cooler part of the grill and cook to rare, 25 to 30 minutes. You will have to test it with your fingers by pressing gently. When done, place the steak on a rack set inside a sheet pan so the steak does not sit in its own juices. Then place a knob of French butter on top and lightly tent it with tin foil to rest for at least 15 minutes before carving.
  • For the romaine marmalade and watercress: In a blender or food processor, combine the watercress, romaine, garlic, cilantro, parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add the oil and puree until smooth. Set aside. Yield: 2 cups.
  • To serve, slice each steak into 3 thick, equal-size portions. Spoon equal portions of the watercress-romaine puree onto each of 6 warm plates. Arrange the sliced steak on each plate. Strain the steak pan juices and pour them on top of the meat.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality steak. Look for steaks that are well-marbled and have a deep red color.
  • To ensure even cooking, bring the steak to room temperature before cooking.
  • Sear the steak over high heat to create a flavorful crust. Then, reduce the heat and cook the steak to your desired doneness.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Use a variety of greens for the salad. Watercress, arugula, and spinach are all good choices.
  • Add some citrus fruits to the salad for a refreshing flavor. Oranges, grapefruit, and tangerines are all good choices.
  • Dress the salad with a simple vinaigrette. Olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper are all you need.
  • Serve the salad immediately.

Conclusion:

Steak, watercress, and orange salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The steak is cooked to perfection and the salad is light and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
