Grilled Hanger Steak With Brandied Green Peppercorn Sauce Recipes

GRILLED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• Combine the garlic, thyme and crushed red pepper with olive oil to make a loose paste. Coat the hanger steaks with the paste and sprinkle generously with salt. Let marinate in the fridge overnight or up to 2 hours outside of the fridge.
• Preheat the grill.
• If the steaks have been marinated ahead, remove them from the fridge and let them come to room temperature.
• Grill the steaks for 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Let the steaks rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
• Slice the steaks on the bias and serve immediately.
• Wine Pairing Suggestion: Bandol red

GRILLED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• In a dish large enough to hold the meat, whisk together the wine, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, sugar, and pepper. Rub the meat with the garlic and place both in the marinade. Turn the meat to coat completely with the marinade. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
• Bring the meat to room temperature. Prepare an outdoor grill or heavy saute pan. Remove the meat from the marinade and pat dry. Generously salt and pepper both sides. Place on the hot grill, cover and cook for 4 minutes. Turn and cook for an additional 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, 140 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Let the meat sit for at least 5 minutes before carving. This can also be cooked under the broiler.

GRILLED HANGER STEAKS

Steps:

• Have the butcher butterfly the steaks, lightly pound them and score them.
• Just before serving, preheat a grill or broiler until it is very hot.
• While the grill or broiler is heating, brush the steaks with the olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Grill or broil the steaks a minute or two on each side (or longer) to the desired degree of doneness. Do not overcook. Slice into 2-inch wide pieces, and serve at once.

GRILLED HANGER STEAK

Steps:

• Trim away fat and membrane from the surface of the steak about 2 hours before cooking time. If the hanger steak is whole, gently tease the meat away from the long center sinew and discard it in order to create 2 long, thin steak pieces. Place trimmed steaks in a non-reactive baking dish.
• Combine Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper in a small bowl. Rub spice mix over all the surfaces of the steak.
• Cover steak with aluminum foil and allow to stand at room temperature for about 2 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Rub the steaks with olive oil and lightly sprinkle with sea salt.
• When the cooking grates are hot, place oiled steak onto the grate and cook steaks until firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side (medium-rare). An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove from the grill and tent with foil to allow residual heat to bring internal temperature up to 135 degrees F (57 degrees C).
• Slice about 1/4 inch thick, across the steaks, and serve warm.

GRILLED HANGER STEAK WITH A ROASTED SHALLOT PORT DEMI SAUCE AND GRILLED GARLIC GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Lightly cover the steaks with canola oil and season generously with salt and pepper; cover and place in refrigerator until ready to grill.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Place a sheet of aluminum foil on about 1/3 of the grill surface.
• Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook the green beans in the boiling water until heated through yet still firm, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the garlic and 1/4 cup of canola oil to the green beans and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Stir the water, sugar, and shallots together in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves; cover the pan and bring the mixture to a boil. Drain the liquid and return the shallots to the pan. Add the port wine and demi glace to the saucepan and place over medium heat; cook until the liquid reduces to about half its original volume. Stir the butter into the mixture until it melts. Remove the pan from the heat. Season with salt as needed. Keep the saucepan covered until the steaks are prepared.
• Spread the green beans onto the part of the grill prepared with aluminum foil and allow to finish cooking while grilling the steaks.
• Cook the steaks until they start to firm, and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 2 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Allow the steaks to rest 5 minutes before placing onto individual plates. Spoon the sauce over the steaks. Serve the green beans on the side.

• Strain mushroom liquid through a coffee filter to remove grit. Pour sauce through a sieve; discard solids and return sauce to pan. Add mushroom liquid. Whisk in demi-glace. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if needed. Keep warm over low heat.

HANGER STEAK WITH BRANDIED CHERRIES

Steps:

• For the marinade:
• Combine the soy sauce, soy oil, balsamic vinegar, mirin, black peppercorns, sugar and salt in a blender and blend well. Mix with the garlic, thyme and rosemary.
• Pour the marinade over the steaks and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
• For the cherry sauce:
• Gently saute the shallots in half the butter in a heavy-bottomed pot until soft and translucent. Add the mustard and cook for one minute. Hold the pan away from the flame, add the brandy, and then return to the flame to ignite and flambe the shallots. When the flame dies down, add the cherries with their rehydrating liquid and the veal stock. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes, and then stir in the remaining butter. Finish with the tarragon and lots of freshly cracked pepper.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add some oil. Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Saute until nicely browned all around, about 7 minutes for medium rare. Remove and let rest for at least 2 minutes on a paper towel. Place the steaks on a large plate and ladle the sauce directly on top. Serve immediately.
