Surf N Turf Flank Steak And Prawns With A Salad Of Grilled Romaine Recipes

GRILLED ROMAINE

Steps:

• Place vinegar in shallow pan and place in the freezer. Allow the vinegar to freeze, approximately 2 hours. Once frozen, scrape with a fork to create a shaved ice texture. Return the vinegar to the freezer until ready to use.
• Cut each heart of romaine in half lengthwise so that the root keeps each piece together. Lightly brush the cut side of the romaine pieces with olive oil. Season with the pepper. Place the cheese in a shallow pan large enough to lay the romaine in and press the cheese firmly onto the cut side of the romaine until it adheres.
• Spray a nonstick griddle or saute pan with vegetable spray and preheat over medium-high heat. Place the romaine in the pan and cook until the cheese turns golden, approximately 1 to 2 minutes Place the romaine, cheese side up onto plates and sprinkle with the vinegar ice. Serve immediately.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat tabletop grill, grill pan, or outdoor grill to high.
• Combine first 10 ingredients in a shallow dish. Coat flank steak in mixture and reserve 10 to 15 minutes.
• Trim ends and 1 inch of tops off of the scallions. Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil over both the scallions and the shrimp and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Grill scallions and shrimp 2 minutes on each side. Then remove and reserve.
• Place meat on grill pan and cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove meat and let juices settle, about 5 minutes.
• Combine greens and onions and parsley leaves on a large platter or individual plates. Cut scallions into 1-inch pieces, scatter over greens, and then evenly distribute the grilled shrimp over the greens.
• Mix the lemon juice, tomato paste, and Worcestershire in a small bowl and whisk in the extra-virgin olive oil. Season the dressing with salt and pepper and drizzle it back and forth over the arranged greens and scallions and shrimp. Slice the steak very thinly against the grain on an angle with a sharp knife and arrange it over the salad.
