Ginger Steak Recipes

STEAK WITH GINGER BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to smoke. Add the steaks, and cook until nicely browned, 1 or 2 minutes. Turn, and brown the second side, another minute or two. Remove the skillet from the heat and the steaks to a plate.
• When the skillet has cooled enough so that no smoke is rising, return it to medium heat. Add butter, and when it melts, add ginger. About 30 seconds later, add soy sauce and stir to blend. Return steaks to the skillet, along with any accumulated juices. Turn heat to medium, and cook the steaks a total of 4 minutes, turning 3 or 4 times. (If pan juices dry out, add a couple of tablespoons of water.) At this point, they will be medium-rare; cook a little longer if you like, and serve, with pan juices spooned over.

EASY GINGER BEEF

Steps:

• Place steak, ginger, and soy sauce in a bowl; turn to coat steak. Cover tightly; marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
• Heat a wok over high heat; pour in beef mixture. Cover wok; cook until beef is browned, about 5 minutes. Remove beef from wok.
• Heat butter in wok over high heat; stir in bell pepper, onion, mushrooms, and sweet and sour sauce. Cover and cook until vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir cooked beef into vegetable mixture; cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve over cooked rice.

CRISPY GINGER BEEF

Steps:

• Place cornstarch in a large bowl; gradually whisk in water until smooth. Whisk eggs into cornstarch mixture; toss steak strips in mixture to coat.
• Pour canola oil into wok 1-inch deep; heat oil over high heat until hot but not smoking. Place 1/4 of the beef strips into hot oil; separate strips with a fork. Cook, stirring frequently, until coating is crisp and golden, about 3 minutes. Remove beef to drain on paper towels; repeat with remaining beef.
• Drain off all but 1 tablespoon oil; cook and stir carrot, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, green onions, ginger, and garlic over high heat until lightly browned but still crisp, about 3 minutes.
• Whisk sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper together in a small bowl. Pour sauce mixture over vegetables in wok; bring mixture to a boil. Stir beef back into vegetable mixture; cook and stir just until heated through, about 3 minutes.

AMAZING GINGER-GARLIC STEAK MARINADE

Steps:

• Throw all ingredients in a Ziplock bag with your steaks.
• Refrigerate overnight (tastes best), or for at least two hours.
• Cook your steaks however you want.
• Some people will probably scream unsanitary, but I like to boil down the marinade until it thickens in the same pan I cook my steaks in, and serve it as a pan sauce. I'm not dead yet!
• Enjoy!

STEAK WITH GINGER BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Prick the sweet potatoes a few times with a fork. Microwave, turning halfway through, until almost tender, about 8 minutes. Let cool slightly, then cut into bite-size pieces.
• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shishito peppers and season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, until browned and starting to soften, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove to a plate with tongs. Add the sweet potatoes to the skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Return the peppers to the skillet to heat through, about 30 seconds.
• Meanwhile, mix the soy sauce, vinegar and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Season the steaks all over with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a separate large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks; cook until browned, 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove to a cutting board.
• Place the empty skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon butter and the ginger. Cook until the ginger sizzles, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and add the soy sauce mixture. Whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until smooth.
• Slice the steaks and divide among plates, along with the vegetables. Spoon the sauce over the meat. Top with sesame seeds.

GINGER STEAK SALAD

Steps:

• For the steak and marinade: Combine the soy sauce, sherry, brown sugar and garlic in a resealable plastic bag. Mix together, place the steak in the bag and seal. Marinate for 5 minutes (or up to 2 hours if you have time).
• For the salad dressing: Combine the olive oil, soy sauce, ginger, lime juice, granulated sugar, garlic and jalapenos in a small bowl.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. When hot, brush it with the olive oil. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting any excess drain off, and cook to medium rare on the grill pan, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the steak to a plate, allowing it to cool slightly.
• For the salad: In a bowl, toss the salad greens, tomatoes and half of the green onions with about three-quarters of the salad dressing.
• Place the steak on a cutting board and slice thinly, then pour the juices from the plate over the top of the steak. Mound the tossed salad on a serving plate, then arrange the sliced steak on top. Pour the remaining salad dressing over the top. Sprinkle the remaining green onions over the salad and serve.

GINGER-MARINATED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• Place steak and remaining marinade in a large resealable plastic bag, turn to coat, and chill at least 2 hours.
• Remove steak from marinade, scraping off as much marinade as possible. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook steak until browned on all sides, 8-10 minutes for medium-rare (the thinner steaks will cook more quickly). Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes before slicing.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add bok choy, cut side down, and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn, add remaining garlic clove, and cook, tossing occasionally, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup water and cook until bok choy is tender, about 2 minutes longer.
• Top steak with chives and serve with bok choy and reserved marinade alongside.
• DO AHEAD: Steak can be marinated 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.

STEAK WITH SOY-GINGER BUTTER

Steps:

• Mash the butter with the spring onions ginger and soy, gradually working in the soy. You can leave it at room temperature or put it in the fridge to chill. Some people like to chill it a little, then shape it into a log and wrap it in baking parchment. You can then cut the butter into rounds.
• Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 2 and put an empty roasting tin or a metal baking sheet large enough to hold all the steaks into it.
• Heat a large frying pan (or 2 smaller ones) - use a cast iron one if you can - for 7-10 mins before you want to start cooking. Add a tiny bit of flavourless oil. When the pan smokes, it's ready for the steaks.
• Add the steaks to the pan. Quickly hold the fat on each of them against the base of the pan to render a little fat and colour it, then lay the steaks flat and press down with your tongs. Season with salt and flip the steaks over frequently, moving them round the pan and making sure you can hear them sizzle. If the pan gets too hot, and the surface is getting too dark, turn the heat down (you want a good dark colour, but you don't want to burn it). Once the surface is well coloured - this should take about 4 mins - transfer the steaks to the hot sheet or tin in the oven. Finish cooking the steaks in the oven - 2 mins for rare steak, 5 minutes for medium-rare. Serve with a knob of the soy butter melting over the top, some Asian greens and chips.
