Tri Tip Picanha Roast With Charred Cherry Tomatoes And Onions Recipes

SPAGHETTINI WITH TOMATOES AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice tomatoes and place half of the slices in a single layer on the bottom of a baking dish. Add 2 to 3 anchovies on top of each tomato slice. Top each tomato slice with another tomato slice, making a sandwich out of the anchovies. Season with crushed red pepper and olive oil. Bake 20 minutes.
• Cook pasta.
• Drain pasta and mix with tomato and anchovy mixture in a large pasta bowl. Toss with spoons to break up the tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped parsley and fresh Parmesan, to taste.

TORTA AHOGADA (DROWNED BEEF SANDWICH)

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the chopped tomatoes with chiles, tomato sauce, cilantro, chipotles, adobo sauce, lime juice, and salt. Bring to a simmer, stirring. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to gently cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• To prepare the meat filling:
• Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions. Cook and stir until the onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and jalapeno, stirring to incorporate. Cook and stir for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, until the onions are well browned and the garlic and jalapenos soften. Add the meat and toss until heated through and well combined, about 2 minutes. Add 3/4 cup of the tomato sauce to the roast beef mixture, tossing to coat.
• Remove the sauce from the heat and add the broth. Using an immersion or standard blender, puree the sauce until smooth, it should be thin. Ladle the sauce into 4 bowls for dipping. Be sure the bowls are large enough so the sauce doesn't slop out when the sandwich is dipped.
• To serve:
• Spread the smashed avocado on the both side of the roll. Pile the meat filling on the bottom halves of the sandwich buns, close, and cut each sandwich in half. Arrange each sandwich on a plate with the dipping sauce on the side. Dip and eat!

TRI-TIP ROAST WITH PARSLEY CHERRY-TOMATO

Steps:

• Make roast:
• Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Pat roast dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat oil in skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sear roast until underside is browned, about 4 minutes. Turn meat over, then transfer skillet to upper rack of oven and roast until thermometer inserted 2 inches into center of meat registers 120°F, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand 15 minutes. (Internal temperature of meat will rise to 130 to 135°F for medium-rare.)
• Make sauce while meat cooks:
• Toss together tomatoes, salt, red-pepper flakes, and 1/4 cup oil in a 13- by 9-inch glass baking dish. Roast on lower rack until tomatoes burst and release their juices, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pulse parsley and garlic with vinegar and remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a food processor until chopped, then transfer to a bowl.
• Stir tomatoes with their juices into parsley mixture. Slice roast across the grain and serve with sauce.
