Best Beef Tri Tip Skewers Marinated In Harissa And Yogurt Recipes

THE BEST BEEF TRI-TIP

The Best Beef Tri-Tip image

I received a food wish for roast beef recently, which can be done with many different cuts. I ended up deciding on beef tri-tip, since it's affordable, flavorful, great for parties, and, using this low-temp roasting technique, nearly fool-proof. No marinating, no searing, no nothing; just rub on some salt and spices and pop it into the oven until it reaches the doneness you want. Plate it up with a Romano bean salad or enjoy as a roast beef sandwich!

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 (2 1/2 pound) beef tri-tip roast
½ cup beef broth

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
Mix salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, dried rosemary, and fresh rosemary together in a small bowl.
Place tri-tip in a baking pan. Season generously with the spice rub until both sides are completely covered.
Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare, or until desired doneness, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Flip meat over halfway.
Cover pan with aluminum foil and let meat rest for 20 minutes. Remove tri-tip to a cutting board and cut into 2 pieces along where the grain changes direction. Slice meat across the grain and transfer to serving plates.
Mix beef broth in with the pan drippings and drizzle over the slices.

YOGURT-MARINATED BEEF KEBABS WITH CALABRIAN CHILE TAPENADE

Yogurt-Marinated Beef Kebabs with Calabrian Chile Tapenade image

With the summer months coming into full swing I love recipes that are light, delicious and easy to execute indoors or out. Enter this beef kebab recipe: Calabrian chiles bring a unique spice to a classic, and the yogurt marinade gives the beef a nice tang. A tapenade of the chiles with artichoke hearts, olives and feta is a bright topping that's perfect for summer. It's a dish that's easy to make and even easier to eat.

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups whole-milk yogurt
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon roughly chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon roughly chopped fresh mint
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound beef tenderloin, tri-tip or sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup roughly chopped jarred Calabrian chiles (with seeds)
3 tablespoons roughly chopped canned artichoke hearts
2 tablespoons pitted chopped kalamata olives
2 tablespoons crumbled feta
2 tablespoons roughly chopped bottled roasted red pepper
2 tablespoons roughly chopped parsley, plus more for garnish

Steps:

Soak three 8-inch wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, dill, mint and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and mix thoroughly. Reserve 1/4 cup of this mixture for plating. Add the beef to the remaining mixture, toss to coat and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Preheat a grill pan or large heavy skillet over high heat for 3 minutes or until smoking. Thread the beef equally on the skewers and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour the vegetable oil into the pan or skillet and cook the skewers on all four sides until very dark grill marks appear, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the skewers from the pan and set aside to rest for 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, make a tapenade by combining the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, Calabrian chiles, artichoke hearts, olives, feta, roasted red pepper and parsley in a small bowl.
To serve, place the reserved yogurt mixture evenly in the middle of 2 serving plates. Top with the beef and tapenade and sprinkle with additional parsley. Enjoy!
