GRILLED STEAK WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS, BLUE CHEESE, WILD MUSHROOM RELISH AND ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE
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.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Peel red onions and cut into wedges about 2cm (3/4") thick.
- Place onions into a small baking dish or pie plate and drizzle over 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, the brown sugar and olive oil.
- Cover dish with foil and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes (but set timer for 30 minutes).
- Meanwhile, cut the unpeeled pumpkin into wedges or chunks around 5cm (2" thick).
- Toss with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and place into another small baking dish or pie plate.
- When onions have been in the oven for 30 minutes, put the dish of pumpkin into the oven as well and bake for 40 minutes - but set timer for 30 minutes.
- In the meantime, heat a small, dry pan over medium heat, add the pine nuts and toast until lightly golden brown, moving the pan and tossing the pine nuts constantly so as not to burn them. Transfer from pan into a small bowl and set aside until needed.
- Crumble feta into a small bowl, cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Make dressing by combining all ingredients in a small bowl and whisking well. Set aside until needed.
- When the onions have been in the oven for 60 minutes (and the pumpkin for 30 minutes), remove the foil cover from the onions, close oven and bake onions and pumpkin for another 10 minutes.
- While this is happening, heat oil in a medium frying pan and cook steaks.
- Remove cooked steaks from pan and transfer to a plate. Cover with foil and rest for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss together the rocket and the salad dressing.
- To serve, place the steak on a plate, scatter over pumpkin and caramelised red onion. Scatter rocket decoratively over the top and around the sides, and then sprinkle over pine nuts and feta.
ROASTED PUMPKIN AND RED ONION WITH HONEY DRESSING
Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F.
- Add the onions, pumpkin, red chili flakes, olive oil to a large baking dish, and season with sea salt to taste; toss well to fully coat the ingredients. Roast the vegetables until the pumpkin is soft and golden, about 40 to 45 minutes.
- Pour the honey and red wine vinegar into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Transfer the pumpkin and onion to a serving dish and then drizzle with the honey dressing and mint leaves.

Tips:
- To achieve perfectly caramelized red onions, slice them thinly and cook them low and slow with a little butter, sugar, and balsamic vinegar until they are soft and sweet.
- For the best roasted pumpkin, choose a variety that is firm and flavorful, such as butternut squash or kabocha squash. Cut the pumpkin into small cubes and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- To ensure that the steak is cooked to your desired doneness, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, the internal temperature should be 135 degrees Fahrenheit; for medium, it should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit; and for medium-well, it should be 155 degrees Fahrenheit.
- When assembling the steak and vegetables, start with a layer of roasted pumpkin, then top with the steak, caramelized red onions, and crumbled feta cheese. Drizzle with a balsamic reduction or a simple vinaigrette for extra flavor.
Conclusion:
This steak with caramelized red onion, feta, and roasted pumpkin is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The combination of flavors and textures is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve with a side of roasted potatoes or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
