Time 33m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (20-ounce) rib eye steak, 1 1/2-inches thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for grill grates
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 large handfuls arugula
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Steps:

  • Heat a gas grill to medium-high heat on one side and medium heat on the other.
  • Generously season the steak with salt and pepper. Use a clean tea towel to brush the grill grates with oil.
  • Grill the steak on each side for 5 to 6 minutes for medium. Remove from the grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes. While the steak rests, prepare the salad.
  • In a separate bowl, add the vinegar and drizzle in the olive oil while whisking and season with salt and pepper. Add the arugula and tomatoes and toss to coat. Divide and arrange the salad between two plates. Slice the steak and divide between the two plates.

DRY-RUBBED RIB EYE STEAK RESTAURANT STYLE



Dry-Rubbed Rib Eye Steak Restaurant Style image

The other day I saw Chef Anne Burrell demonstrate this delicious way to serve thick and tender steak! The brown sugar in the dry rub gives the steak a crusty finish, while the smoked paprika and other spices keep it savory. The recipe calls for Kosher salt - if you only have regular table salt, reduce the amount of salt to 1 1/2 - 2 tablespoons total. You need to refrigerate the seasoned steaks for several hours, a day, or longer. I personally don't recommend the 3 day chill period (shown in the published recipe) as the salt pulls moisture out of the meat and you may dry smaller steaks out completely. Chill time and grill preparation are not included in the prep time.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons kosher salt (to taste)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, pulverized
2 teaspoons spanish smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
oil, for brushing grill
2 (22 -24 ounce) bone-in rib eye steaks, about 2-inches thick
extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine all the spices in a bowl. Stir to evenly distribute all the ingredients. If you want to monitor the amount of salt, combine all the spices except the salt in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon Kosher salt and stir. Taste the rub and then gradually add more salt to taste.
  • Rub the outside of each steak on all sides generously with the rub and store any leftovers in an airtight container. Wrap each steak in plastic wrap two times, and refrigerate up to 24 hours (my preference) or at most 3 days. This makes the steak taste aged.
  • Preheat a gas or charcoal grill until hot. Brush the grill to remove any left over food, then oil the grill. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 20 to 30 minutes before cooking and let them come to room temperature. Just before cooking, remove the plastic wrap and lightly oil the steaks with extra-virgin olive oil.
  • Place the steaks on a very hot grill and char both sides of the steaks, a few minutes per side. When the outsides of the steaks have become well seared, move the steaks to a cooler part of the grill to continue cooking for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare.
  • Remove steaks from the grill and let rest in a warm spot for 7 to 8 minutes. Cut the steak off the bone and slice on the bias across the grain in slices to the thickness you prefer, up to 1 inch thick. Add the bone to the serving plate if you have folks who will appreciate it. If desired, drizzle the meat with extra-virgin olive oil. Serve immediately.

Time 2h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

4 rib-eye steaks, 10 to 12 ounces, prefer thick
2 large ripe tomatoes, de-cored, sliced in half
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 bunch mint, picked, chopped (save 4 sprigs for garnish)
1 bunch Thai basil (or regular), picked, chopped (save 4 sprigs for garnish)
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, minced
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1/2 pound mesclun
Canola oil, for frying
4 large Idaho potatoes, skin on, cut into wedges (1/2-inch sides), soaking in ice water
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground fennel
1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 tablespoon Szechwan peppercorns
1/2 tablespoon chile powder (ancho)
1/2 tablespoon star anise
2 tablespoons kosher salt

Steps:

  • Prepare a hot, clean, oiled grill. In a saucepan, heat the oil on medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger and fry briefly. Add the herbs and zest. Pull off of the heat. Dissolve sugar with lemon juice and mix in mustard. Whisk in with herb mix. Season the steaks and tomatoes and grill on both sides, about 8 to 10 minutes, (tomatoes will take about 5 minutes). Slather the steak and tomatoes with the herb mixture frequently. Let steaks rest 5 minutes before serving.
  • Prepare a fryer on medium-high heat. Drain potatoes well and pat dry. Blanch the potatoes in the oil until lightly colored. Set aside, un-seasoned, on paper towels. Mix all the spices and salt together. Raise the oil temperature to high and fry the potatoes again until golden, brown and delicious. Season with salt immediately.
  • Note: There will be leftover seasoned salt. Store in air-tight container and use it on any grilled items.
  • PLATING On large plates, lay a bed of salad. Place a mound of fries and lean steak against it. Garnish with tomato half and mint/basil sprigs.
