Best 5 Surf And Turf Asian Style Recipes

SURF AND TURF

Steps:

• Season the steak with salt and pepper.
• Steam the snow crab legs in a steamer for 5 minutes.
• In the meantime, fire up a grill and grill each side of the steak for 3 minutes. Turn over to the other site and grill for 3 minutes, for medium well.
• Plate the steak and the crab legs on two plates, garnish with parsley. Serve with melted butter and lemon wedges.

ASIAN SURF AND TURF

Steps:

• Prepare Steak: If moist, pat steak dry using paper towels. Thinly slice against grain into 1/4 inch thick strips (Note 5), and toss with corn starch in large bowl until well coated. Set aside.
• Prepare Shrimp: Peel and remove veins from shrimp. If moist, pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
• Make Sauce: Add all sauce ingredients to small saucepan. Occasionally stirring, bring to simmer over medium-low heat, about 5 minutes. Once simmering, reduce to low heat to keep sauce warm; meanwhile, proceed to next step.
• Cook Steak: Heat oil in large wide pan (Note 6) over medium heat for a few minutes or until hot. Add sliced beef to hot pan and cook until mostly browned, a few minutes, stirring frequently. Transfer to plate.
• Cook Shrimp: Add shrimp to now-empty pan in single layer. Cook until turning pink around edges, then flip and cook for another minute or until cooked through.
• Finish & Serve: Return beef to pan and pour sauce on top. Stir for a minute to let beef and shrimp soak up sauce. Turn off heat. Stir in scallions and serve immediately (Note 7).

SURF AND TURF FOR TWO

Steps:

• Whisk 1 tablespoon olive oil, butter, onion, wine, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, parsley, seafood seasoning, garlic, and black pepper together in a bowl; add shrimp. Toss to coat evenly. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for flavors to blend, at least 15 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Coat steaks with 2 teaspoons olive oil; sprinkle with steak seasoning.
• Cook steaks until they are beginning to firm and have reached your desired doneness, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Transfer steaks to a platter and loosely tent with a piece of aluminum foil.
• Remove shrimp from marinade and grill until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

SURF AND TURF, ASIAN STYLE

Steps:

• Pat the meat dry then coat on both sides with 2 tablespoons of oil and set aside.
• Combine the 1/4 cup scallions, 1 tablespoon ginger and 1 tablespoon garlic in a small bowl; in another small bowl, combine the cornstarch and rice wine; in a 2-cup measure, combine the broth, oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon soy sauce and the sesame oil; place all the bowls near the stove.
• Combine the chopped shrimp, Szechuan pepper, 1/3 cup scallions, 2 teaspoon ginger, 2 teaspoons garlic and 2 teaspoons soy sauce in a small bowl, this is your topping; mix it well and set aside.
• Broil the steaks until seared and nicely browned on one side, about 4 minutes; turn and broil 3 minutes more; spread the shrimp topping evenly over each filet then continue to broil the meat until the topping is opaque and has begun to brown, about 1 minute (the steaks will be medium rare); transfer the steaks to a warm platter or 4 warm plates.
• While the steaks are cooking, heat a wok or skillet and add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of vegetable oil and the scallion-ginger-garlic mixture to the wok; stir until the scallions soften, about 30 seconds, then add the liquids in the measuring cup; bring to a boil; stir up the cornstarch mixture and stir it into the wok; when the sauce thickens, about 1 minute, spoon 2 tablespoons of the mixture onto each steak and pass the remainder of the sauce at the table.
• Note- for my husband and me, I used 2 8-oz filets (because we're pigs) and did not halve the seafood and sauce mixture; the cooking time was roughly doubled and the steaks turned out medium to medium rare.

SPICY SURF-N-TURF TRIO

Steps:

• Put a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
• In a large bowl, drizzle the chicken, flank steak, and shrimp with olive oil and season on all sides with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill the chicken until cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes per side. Grill the flank steak to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium. Transfer the chicken and steak to a cutting board and let the meat rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Grill the shrimp until just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Grill the scallions until brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Grill the cheese for 10 seconds on each side. Transfer the shrimp, scallions and cheese to a large plate.
• Sauce:
• In a large heavy saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, tomatoes, and garlic. Cook until the onion is golden and very soft, about 8 minutes. Add the chiles, oregano, and cumin. Stir until fragrant, about for 2 minutes. Stir in 1 cup water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the chiles are soft, about 2 minutes. Let the mixture cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor, add the remaining 1 cup of water and blend until smooth. Strain the sauce into a medium saucepan and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 to 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Cut the chicken and flank steak into 3/4-inch-wide strips. Arrange the chicken strips, steak strips, shrimp, scallions, and cheese slices around the edges of a heatproof dish. Pour the warm sauce into the center. Serve very hot, with tortillas to make tacos.
