Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

2 tsp paprika
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp ground dried thyme
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp brown sugar
2 tsp kosher salt
2 filet mignons (8 oz each, 1-inch thick)
2 Tbsp blackened seasoning
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 Tbsp garlic herb butter

Steps:

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel.
Brush olive oil on the filets. Sprinkle the blackened seasoning over the meat and rub in. Flip over and repeat on the other side.
Turn on your kitchen exhaust fan. Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat for five minutes. When the pan is hot, add butter, and when it is melted, add the filets.
Sear the filets without moving for two minutes and turn over and sear the other side.
Remove the skillet from the heat and place in the preheated oven. Cook the filets for four to five minutes or to 120 degrees F for rare, 125 degrees for medium-rare and 130 degrees for medium. Use an instant-read meat thermometer to ensure your steaks are cooked perfectly.
Remove the steaks and place on a platter. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and allow them to rest for five to ten minutes. The temperature of the filets will come up approximately five degrees while they rest.
Top with a pat of the garlic herb butter and serve immediately.

BLACKENED STEAK BITES WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

Blackened Steak Bites with Blue Cheese Sauce image

This recipe is similar to an appetizer served at my favorite Italian restaurant. It is a nice change from the usual appetizers and always gets rave reviews! I have used tenderloin in the past, but have found that a good quality top sirloin works very well and is less expensive. Bernaise sauce is a good alternative if you don't like blue cheese.

Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 ½ pounds beef top sirloin, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons blackened seasoning (such as Chef Paul Prudhomme's® Blackened Steak Magic®), or more to taste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese
3 tablespoons evaporated milk
8 ounces blue cheese crumbles
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

Season sirloin with blackened seasoning to coat on all sides.
Heat oil in a cast-iron skillet on an outdoor grill until the oil is smoking. Cook steak bites in hot oil in small batches, reheating oil between batches, until slightly crusty, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
Stir cream cheese and evaporated milk together in a saucepan over low heat to melt the cream cheese. Whisk blue cheese crumbles, garlic powder, white pepper, and cayenne pepper into the cream cheese mixture; simmer, stirring frequently, until the blue cheese melts into a smooth sauce, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve blue cheese sauce with the beef bites.

Ingredients

2 pounds rib-eye steaks, cubed into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons salted butter, melted, plus 2 tablespoons for the sauce
1 tablespoon steak seasoning
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
2 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish

Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.
Toss together the steak, melted butter and steak seasoning in a bowl. Add to the skillet and cook until nicely seared on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes total. Remove the steak bites to a plate to rest and return the skillet to the heat.
Lower the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet. Stir in the rosemary, garlic and a pinch of salt. Cook for 1 minute, until the garlic is heated through and no longer raw. Add the cream and bring it to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, then stir in the blue cheese, horseradish, 1 tablespoon of the chives and black pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl.
Place the steak bites on a platter with toothpicks, with the sauce on the side. Garnish the plater with the remaining chives before serving.
