Surf And Turf With Grilled Vegetables Recipes

GRILLED SURF AND TURF

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and stir with a fork.
• Lay out a sheet of plastic wrap and place the butter onto the plastic wrap. Slowly form into a log about 1 1/2 inches wide. Cover the log with the plastic wrap tightly and twist the edges. Place into the refrigerator to harden until ready to use.
• When ready to grill the lobster tails, cut 4 teaspoon size medallions. Store any excess compound butter in the fridge for later use (great on grilled steak and pork!)
• Prepare the grill for two zone or direct/indirect cooking with lump charcoal. Target 450 - 500 degrees Fahrenheit over the direct heat.
• While the grill heats up, combine the salt and pepper in a small bowl. Coat the steaks with olive oil and dust them with some of the salt and pepper. Save some of the seasoning for the lobster.
• Prepare the lobster by placing the lobster tails on a cutting board with the hard shell facing up. Using a chef knife or kitchen shears, gently cut the shell starting about 1/2 inch from the tail and working your way to the side that is open with the meat. Take care not to cut all the way through the other side.
• Gently open the shell, exposing the meat using two hands. You will hear some cracking. Remove any shell that may break from the meat.
• Season the flesh of the lobster tails with the remaining salt and pepper. (no olive oil needed)
• Place the steaks over direct heat for 5 minutes and cover the grill. Flip the steak over, cover grill, and grill for another 5 minutes. Then move to the indirect side and cover. Continue grilling over indirect heat until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness. We like 125 degrees F for rare (about 8 minutes). Remove and let rest for 10 minutes and place one teaspoon of the butter on each steak while resting (it will slowly start to melt into the meat).
• While the steak is resting grill the lobster.
• Place the lobster tails over direct heat, meat side down for approximately 5 minutes or until it gently pulls away from the grill without sticking.
• After flipping add about a 1 heaping teaspoon medallion of the compound butter over the meat. Grill for an additional 3 - 4 minutes over direct heat. The butter will slowly melt. When the internal temperature of the lobster meat reaches 135 degrees F it is done.
• After removing from the grill, place another teaspoon medallion of butter on the lobster meat and then serve warm with your favorite sides.

GRILLED SURF AND TURF SALAD

Steps:

• Make the dressing: Puree the vinegar, mustard, garlic, anchovies and 2 tablespoons water in a blender until smooth. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil and puree until smooth. Season the steak with salt and pepper and coat with ¼ cup of the dressing. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours. Refrigerate the remaining dressing until ready to serve.
• Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until just slightly tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a medium bowl.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss. Put the shrimp in a separate bowl; drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Grill the steak until well marked, 5 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare; transfer to a cutting board. Meanwhile, grill the potatoes until well marked, about 3 minutes per side; transfer to a plate. Grill the shrimp until well marked and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side; remove to the plate.
• Combine the spinach, watercress, frisee and chives on a platter. Drizzle with some of the remaining dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss. Thinly slice the steak. Arrange the shrimp, potatoes and steak in rows over the greens. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.

SURF AND TURF - GULF COAST STYLE

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
• Open fish basket, or similar wire cooking basket and line one side with strips of bacon, leaving a 1/2 inch space between slices. Cover the layer of bacon with a layer of onion rings. Place the fish fillets on top of the onion. Cover fish with more onion, then strips of bacon over the onion. Close the basket, and lightly sprinkle with soy sauce.
• Place the basket on the hot grill, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until the bacon is just cooked through. Remove from grill, and open the basket. Place a similarly sized plate upside down onto the food, and flip the basket and plate over so that the food is on top of the plate. Lift off the basket, and serve.

SKEWERED SURF AND TURF WITH VEGGIES

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat.
• Blend first 5 ingredients in blender until smooth. Reserve half the dressing mixture to serve with the grilled shrimp and meat.
• Grill vegetables 10 min. or until crisp-tender, turning and brushing occasionally with some of the remaining dressing mixture. Meanwhile, thread steak onto 5 skewers and thread shrimp onto 5 separate skewers. Add to grill along with vegetables. Grill 5 to 7 min. or until shrimp turn pink and steak is done, turning and brushing occasionally with remaining dressing mixture.
• Remove vegetables from grill; cut off stems and remove seeds from peppers. Chop all vegetables into 1-inch pieces. Place on serving platter. Top with shrimp and steak skewers. Drizzle with reserved dressing mixture.

SURF AND TURF FOR TWO

Steps:

• Whisk 1 tablespoon olive oil, butter, onion, wine, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, parsley, seafood seasoning, garlic, and black pepper together in a bowl; add shrimp. Toss to coat evenly. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for flavors to blend, at least 15 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Coat steaks with 2 teaspoons olive oil; sprinkle with steak seasoning.
• Cook steaks until they are beginning to firm and have reached your desired doneness, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Transfer steaks to a platter and loosely tent with a piece of aluminum foil.
• Remove shrimp from marinade and grill until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

GRILLED SURF AND TURF KABOBS

Steps:

• Cut beef into 24 (3/4-inch) pieces. In medium bowl, mix beef, shrimp and teriyaki sauce. Sprinkle with pepper. Cover; refrigerate 30 minutes, stirring frequently. Meanwhile, soak skewers in water at least 30 minutes before using to prevent burning.
• Spray grill rack with cooking spray. Heat gas or charcoal grill. On each skewer, thread 1 beef piece, 1 shrimp and another beef piece, leaving space between each piece; reserve marinade.
• Place kabobs on grill. Cover grill; cook over medium heat 5 to 6 minutes, turning once and brushing with marinade once or twice, until shrimp are pink. Discard any remaining marinade.

SURF AND TURF STIR-FRY RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together minced garlic, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Add in steak and stir to coat. Let sit for at least ten minutes and then remove steak from marinade. Discard marinade.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil in a large skillet on high until smoking hot. Carefully add steak and saute until cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Remove steak and set aside. Wipe the pan out and place back on the burner.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil on high, add shrimp and saute until cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside shrimp with steak. Wipe the pan out again and place it back on the burner.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil on high and add in onion and snap peas. Saute until vegetables are crisp-tender, 4-5 minutes. Add shrimp and steak back in and toss to combine everything. Season with salt and toss again. Serve!
• Enjoy!
