GRILLED FLANK STEAK AND RED ONION WITH ORANGE GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• In a shallow baking dish large enough to hold steak and onion slices in one layer whisk together vinegar, oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Add steak and onions and turn to coat with marinade. Marinate steak and onions, covered, 15 minutes.
• Make gremolata:
• In a small bowl toss together garlic, parsley, and zest.
• Drain steak and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes.
• While steak is standing, drain onions, discarding marinade, and grill 5 minutes on each side, or until tender and golden. (Alternatively, steak and onions may be cooked in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan.)
• Slice steak thin across grain. Serve steak and onions sprinkled with gremolata.

CINNAMON BEEF STEW WITH ORANGE GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Sprinkle the beef generously with salt and pepper. In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat, then add the meat in batches and sear on all sides. It's important that you don't overcrowd the pan. The meat needs air around it to achieve a crisp brown crust. With tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the browned pieces to a bowl to catch their juices. Repeat with remaining cubes. In the same pot, sauté the chopped carrot, onion, celery and garlic for about 2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon. Add the tomato paste and stir for about 1 min. Add the broth and vinegar, scraping the brown bits from the bottom and stir until mixture starts to thicken. Add the meat to the pan with 2 cups of water, 2 tsp salt, a healthy dose of pepper, bay leaves, rosemary, thyme, sage and cinnamon sticks. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer with the pot partially covered for about 90 mins. If the stew starts to look dry, add more water, 1/ cup at a time. Simmer until the meat is fall-apart tender and the liquid in the pan has been reduced to gravy-like status. During the last 15 mins. make the gremolata. In a small bowl, mix the parsley, orange zest, thyme and garlic. Remove the cinnamon sticks. Ladle the stew into deep bowls and top with a few pinches of orange gremolata.

• Stir remaining pepper mixture, garlic, rosemary, 2 tablespoons olive oil, orange juice, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.
• Rub rosemary mixture over both sides of flank steak, poking mixture into steak several times with a fork. Transfer steak to a resealable plastic bag and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Remove steak from marinade; scrape off and discard any excess marinade.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Sprinkle reserved pepper-fennel mixture over steak. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over orange halves.
• Cook steak on the preheated grill until it begins to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove to a plate to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing across the grain.
• Place oranges, flesh-side down, on the grill and cook until flesh is golden and caramelized, 3 to 5 minutes. Place steak and 3 orange halves on a serving platter. Squeeze remaining caramelized orange half over the steak.
