Steaks With Blue Cheese Butter Recipes

GRILLED FLAT IRON STEAK WITH BLUE CHEESE-CHIVE BUTTER

Steps:

• Whisk together vinegar, garlic, 1 tablespoon black pepper, rosemary, oregano, and kosher salt in a bowl along with the olive oil. Place the flat iron steak into a resealable plastic bag, and pour the marinade overtop. Squeeze the excess air from the bag and seal. Marinate in the refrigerator 30 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil grate. Remove steak from the marinade, shake off excess, and discard the remaining marinade. Allow the steak to stand at room temperature for 15 minutes as the grill warms.
• Mash together the butter, blue cheese, chives, and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper; set aside. Cook the steak on the preheated grill to desired degree of doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Allow the steak to rest in a warm place for 10 minutes before slicing thinly across the grain. Serve with a dollop of blue cheese-chive butter.

WELL-DONE STEAK WITH BLUE CHEESE COMPOUND BUTTER

Steps:

• Combine the 1 cup butter, blue cheese, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a food processor. Process until well blended and smooth. Transfer to a sheet of plastic wrap and roll into a cylinder. Wrap tightly and place in the freezer to chill.
• Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temp for 30 to 45 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt. Heat a cast-iron grill pan over high heat until starting to smoke, then add a small amount of oil to the pan. Place the steaks in the pan and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 4 minutes. Turn off the oven and transfer the pan to the oven for 8 minutes, or until the steaks reach an internal temperature of 155 degrees F.
• Place 1/2 tablespoon of the remaining butter on each steak and allow the steaks to rest for 5 minutes before serving; the internal temperature will climb another 5 degrees.
• Serve the steaks topped with blue cheese compound butter.
