Rib Eye Steaks With Chipotle Butter Recipes

PAN SEARED RIB-EYE STEAK WITH CHIPOTLE BROWN BUTTER

Steps:

• Season both sides of the well trimmed rib-eye, as well as the edges with the pepper, salt and granulated garlic. If you have a good thick steak, it can handle a lot of seasoning. If you are using a thin steak, be easy on the salt. Put half of the butter in a very hot skillet, gently so you don't splatter hot butter all over the place. Add the onions first. The more rare the steak you desire, the longer you should saute the onions before starting the meat itself, (3 to 4 minutes for rare, etc). Now, gently add the steak to the skillet and sear thoroughly on each side to your desired doneness. If you can't tell how done the steak is by feel, use an instant-read thermometer:
• Extra Rare-below: 125 degrees F
• When the steak achieves the desired temperature, remove to a plate, leaving the onions in the pan. After you remove the steak from the heat source, it continues to cook, so I take my steaks off a little ahead of time. Add the rest of the butter after you have let the skillet come back up to temperature. Stir in the chipotles and deglaze the pan with the beer. Pour over the steak once the beer has reduced by half and serve.
• Rare: 135 degrees F .
• Medium-Rare: 145 degrees F .
• Medium: 160 degrees F .
• Well Done: 170 degrees F .

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side for medium doneness. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 3 minutes.
• Divide the onion and zucchini among plates. Top with the cheese and cilantro. Slice the steak and add to the plates. Top with the chipotle butter and serve with lime wedges.

GIANT CHIPOTLE-RUBBED STEAKS WITH CILANTRO-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill; if using a gas grill, turn both burners to high.
• Put all spice paste ingredients in a food processor and purée. Rub steaks all over with paste (it will be rather thick) and set aside.
• Combine ingredients for cilantro-lime butter in a small bowl and mash with a spoon until well mixed and an even consistency.
• When all coals are covered with gray ash and fire is medium hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for 3 to 4 seconds), put steaks on grill directly over coals and cook until well seared, about 7 minutes. Turn and cook another 7 to 10 minutes for medium rare. Remove from heat, top each steak with a couple tablespoons of butter, and serve.

RIB EYE STEAKS WITH CHIPOTLE BUTTER

Steps:

• In a medium bowl mix the butter ingredients until evenly incorporated.
• Prepare the grill for direct cooking over high heat (450° to 550°F).
• In a small bowl combine the rub ingredients. Lightly brush the steaks on both sides with oil and season evenly with the rub, gently pressing the rub into the meat. Allow the steaks to stand at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before grilling.
• Brush the cooking grates clean. Grill the steaks over direct high heat, with the lid closed as much as possible, until cooked to your desired doneness, 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, turning once or twice (if flare-ups occur, move the steaks temporarily over indirect heat). Remove from the grill and smear the butter on top. Let rest for 3 to 5 minutes.

GRILLED RIB-EYE STEAKS WITH GREEN CHILE MUSHROOM SALSA BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• Pat steaks dry and brush on both sides with oil. Rub steaks with chipotle rub and in a shallow baking dish large enough to fit steaks in one layer marinate them at room temperature up to 30 minutes.
• Grill steaks on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until crusty and medium-rare, about 4 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, steaks may be cooked in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan.) Transfer steaks to a warm platter and let stand 5 minutes.
• Divide beans among 4 small deep platters and top with steaks. Dollop salsa butter on steaks and top with onion rings.
• For the Chipotle Rub:
• In a small heavy skillet dry-roast oregano over moderate heat, shaking skillet occasionally, until fragrant and beginning to brown, about 2 minutes, and transfer to a small bowl. Cool oregano completely and in an electric coffee/spice grinder grind fine.
• In a heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and, using tongs, fry chiles, 1 or 2 at a time, turning them, until puffed and just beginning to brown, about 10 seconds. (Do not let chiles burn or rub will be bitter.) Transfer chiles as fried to paper towels to drain and cool until crisp.
• Wearing rubber gloves, break chiles into pieces and in coffee/spice grinder grind fine in batches. In a food processor grind oregano and chiles with garlic and salt until mixture is a shaggy, saltlike consistency. If mixture seems moist, on a large baking sheet spread it into a thin, even layer and dry in middle of an oven set a lowest temperature until no longer moist, about 1 hour. Wearing rubber gloves, break up any lumps with your fingers. (Chipotle rub keeps in an airtight container, chilled, 6 months. Regrind rub before using. Makes about 3 1/4 cups.)
