BOOZY BEEF STEAKS

I used to use this recipe in the gastro pub I ran, it used to sell like hot cakes! Use a good quality steak-it makes a difference. I also do this as kebabs if I'm serving it at a large gathering, it works a treat. This is perfect on the barbecue, but equally good just grilled or griddled inside.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 strip steaks (each about 1 inch thick), room temperature
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
Simple Steak Sauce, optional

Steps:

  • Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet (preferably cast iron) over high 5 minutes. Generously season steaks with salt and pepper. Add 1/2 teaspoon butter to pan, then immediately top with one steak. Repeat with remaining 1/2 teaspoon butter and steak. Cook without moving steaks until a golden brown crust forms, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook 2 minutes more for rare, or 3 to 4 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Slice steaks against the grain; serve with sauce, if desired.
  • Heat a 10- or 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat. Season the steaks liberally with salt and pepper. Seconds before adding a steak, drop 1/2 teaspoon of the butter into the pan and immediately top with the steak. Repeat with the remaining steak. Sear for 3 minutes without moving the steak (to form a crust). Turn and cook for 2 minutes for rare or 3 to 4 for medium rare. Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest on a board or platter for a few minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Tenderize the beef: Use a meat mallet or tenderizing tool to break down the connective tissues in the beef, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Choose the right cut of beef: Look for a cut of beef that is suitable for pan-frying, such as ribeye, strip steak, or tenderloin.
  • Season the beef well: Generously season the beef with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before cooking.
  • Cook the beef in batches: If you are cooking a large amount of beef, cook it in batches to prevent overcrowding the pan and ensure even cooking.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet: A heavy-bottomed skillet will help to distribute heat evenly and prevent the beef from sticking.
  • Sear the beef: Sear the beef over high heat to create a golden brown crust and lock in the juices.
  • Reduce the heat and cook the beef to your desired doneness: After searing the beef, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the beef to your desired doneness.
  • Make the onion rings: While the beef is cooking, make the onion rings by slicing the onions into thin rings and coating them in flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs.
  • Fry the onion rings: Heat oil in a large saucepan or deep fryer and fry the onion rings until golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the beef and onion rings together: Serve the pan-fried beef steaks with the fried onion rings and your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
