Udon With Grilled Flank Steak Recipes

GRILLED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Make the marinade: Combine the canola oil, vinegar, mustard, garlic, oregano, parsley, rosemary and Worcestershire sauce in a food processor; season with salt and pepper. Pulse until the garlic and herbs are incorporated in the oil.
• Place the steak in a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak and marinate in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes or overnight.
• Make the sauce: Remove the steak from the bag and pour the marinade into a small pan. Bring the marinade to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Preheat a grill to high and oil the grates. Grill the steak 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 to 7 minutes, then slice against the grain. Serve with the herb sauce.

GRILLED FLANK STEAK WITH BACON BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• Heat a stove-top grill pan or griddle with cooking spray over medium-high heat to preheat. Place peppercorns in a plastic bag and smash with the flat side of a meat mallet, or bottom of a heavy skillet, until finely crushed. Season both sides of flank steak with crushed peppercorns, salt and garlic flakes.
• Place steak on hot pan and cook 5 minutes per side for medium doneness. Remove from heat and let steak rest 10 minutes. Slice meat crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices.
• While the steak is cooking, Place diced bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and crisp. Add vinegar and bring to a simmer for 5 minutes, or until liquid reduces. In a small bowl, add broth and cornstarch, whisking until cornstarch is completely dissolved, and add to skillet. Simmer 2 minutes bringing to a full boil, until sauce thickens. Remove from heat, spoon sauce over steak slices and top with parsley.

ASIAN STEAK AND NOODLE BOWL

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, vegetable oil, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic powder together in a large bowl. Pierce flank steak several times with a large fork. Place in the bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let marinate in the refrigerator, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook udon noodles in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 13 to 14 minutes. Drain.
• Heat a large skillet over high heat. Remove steak from marinade and cook until well-browned, about 2 minutes per side. Reserve marinade.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Grill steak, basting with half of the reserved marinade, until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium or 150 degrees F (65 degrees C) for medium-well, at least 10 minutes per side. Slice steak thinly against the grain.
• Combine remaining marinade, snow peas, broccoli florets, and mirin in the skillet. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until snow peas are tender, about 2 minutes. Add drained noodles; mix well to combine.
• Divide noodle mixture among large bowls. Top with steak slices.

UDON WITH GRILLED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Prepare a gas grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-high heat.
• Stir together 2 teaspoons garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons ginger, 1 tablespoon vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Pat steaks dry and rub marinade all over them. Marinate 5 to 15 minutes.
• Brush steaks with 1 tablespoon oil, then oil grill rack and grill steaks, covered, turning over once, about 10 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes.
• While steaks cook, add noodles to a pasta pot of boiling salted water (1 tablespoon salt for 4 quarts water) and, when noodles rise to top, reduce heat, then simmer until just tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Add sugar snaps and cook 1 minute more. Drain in a colander and rinse briefly under cold water. Divide noodles and sugar snaps among 4 large bowls.
• Bring broth to a boil in a small saucepan with remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, 1 tablespoon oil, 2 teaspoons garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons ginger, then stir in fish sauce and scallions and pour over noodles.
• Thinly slice steaks across grain and divide among bowls, then top with mint or cilantro.

GRILLED FLANK STEAK WITH ONIONS

Steps:

• Place the flank steak in a sturdy resealable plastic bag. Add the sliced onions, placing them both under and on top of the meat. Mix remaining ingredients to make marinade, and pour over the meat and onions. Seal the bag and refrigerate for a minimum of 8 hours, turning the bag occasionally.
• To cook: Heat the grill. Remove the onions from the marinade, place them in an oven-proof dish and bake them (covered) for 20-30 minutes at 350 degrees. Grill the meat, turning once. The original recipe says 2" from something called "hot coals". My gas grill doesn't have "hot coals", but I've heard of them -- Take care not overcook it; Medium is overcooked, IMHO.
• To serve, slice the meat thinly across the grain and top with the baked onions, or at least be honest, and tell guests that the sliced onions are available. Saving them for yourself is not polite.

TERIYAKI UDON WITH BEEF OR CHICKEN BOWL

Steps:

• Combine chicken or steak with 2/3 cup teriyaki sauce and marinate for 3 hours in the refrigerator. If using flank steak, shallowly score one side with a knife to allow a bit more flavor to penetrate the meat.
• Remove meat from the marinade and heat a grill pan or skillet with a medium-high flame. Once heated, add either the chicken or beef and grill/cook until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees (for the chicken) or to desired level of doneness (for the beef). Once done, remove from the heat to a plate and then tent with foil. Set aside.
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet until the oil is shimmering. Add the carrots and broccoli and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes. Add the celery and onion and stir-fry for another 2 minutes. Next, add the water chestnuts, garlic and ginger. Stir-fry until the veggies are crisp tender.
• Meanwhile, put on a large pot of water to boil and cook the udon noodles according to the package's instructions (al dente). Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water and then drain and rinse the udon under cold water to remove gumminess.
• Add the noodles to the hot skillet along with the remaining 2/3 cup teriyaki sauce and 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water. Reduce heat to medium and start tossing the udon, vegetables and sauce together.
• Simmer for a minute. If you're serving flank steak, take this moment to slice it thinly. You can either add the flank steak/chicken directly to the pan and toss or else dish up the udon and top with grilled steak or chicken. Serve in bowls and garnish with green onions.
