Blue Cheese Beef Kabobs Recipes

STEAK TIPS WITH MUSHROOMS AND CREAMY BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Pat steak dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large stainless steel, cast iron, or aluminum skillet over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking. Add steak tips in a single layer and sear on all sides until the exterior is nicely caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes. Depending on the size of your skillet, you might need to do this in 2 separate batches. Transfer the steak to a serving dish in a single layer, and loosely cover with foil.
• Adjust the heat to low, then add the shallots to the pan along with a pinch of salt (if the bottom of the pan isn't shiny, add a small splash of oil first). Stir, using a spatula to scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. If the brown bits won't detach or look like they might burn, deglaze the pan with 1 tablespoon of water to help loosen them.
• After 1-2 minutes, add the mushrooms and garlic, turning the heat up to medium-low, and cook until the mushrooms are soft, 3-4 minutes.
• Stir in the stock, cream, and any juices that have accumulated around the steak. Scrape up any additional brown bits if they appear. Simmer the sauce until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and whisk in 1/2 cup of the blue cheese. Pour the sauce over the steak, and top with the remaining cheese and chives. Serve immediately.

BIG BAD BEEF SKEWERS

Steps:

• For the skewers: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Cut off the ends of the zucchini, then trim off the sides lengthwise, creating 4 flat sides. Cut crosswise to create 1 1/2-inch cubes.
• Using six 14-inch metal skewers, skewer the beef, zucchini, tomatoes and onions, distributing the ingredients evenly among the skewers.
• For the spice mix: In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, lemon pepper, fennel seeds and thyme. Drizzle the skewers with the vegetable oil and season with the spice mixture. Grill the skewers until well-marked on all sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Allow to rest while making the salad.
• For the blue cheese sauce: In a mason jar, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, milk, blue cheese and some hot sauce, salt and pepper. Put on the lid and shake until evenly combined.
• For serving: Mix together the olive oil and lemon juice in a bowl.
• Add the salad greens to a serving platter and drizzle with the lemon dressing. Place the skewers over the salad greens and drizzle with the blue cheese sauce. Garnish with the parsley and blue cheese.
