Best Grilled Strip Steaks With Olive Oregano Relish Recipes

GRILLED STRIP STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high. Brush the grill with a wire grill brush to remove any soot and fat on the grill grates. Wipe the grill grate with an oiled cloth to remove any bits of crud that were loosened by brushing.
• Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature. Season the steaks generously with salt and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
• Arrange the steaks on the hottest part of the grill until beautiful brown grill marks form, then rotate the steaks 90 degrees to create the crosshatch marks.
• Turn the steaks over and repeat the process. Once the grill marks have formed on the second side, move the steaks to a cooler part of the grill and let cook to the desired doneness. Cook about 5 to 6 minutes on each side for medium-rare.

GRILLED STRIP STEAKS WITH OLIVE-OREGANO RELISH

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• Pit olives and coarsely chop. In a bowl stir together olives, onion, oregano, oil, pepper, and salt to taste. Pat steaks dry and season with salt and pepper. Grill steaks on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. (Alternatively, grill steaks in a hot oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Serve steaks topped with relish.

PERFECTLY GRILLED STEAK

Steps:

• About 20 minutes before grilling, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let sit, covered, at room temperature.
• Heat your grill to high. Brush the steaks on both sides with oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the steaks over and continue to grill 3 to 5 minutes for medium-rare (an internal temperature of 135 degrees F), 5 to 7 minutes for medium (140 degrees F) or 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well (150 degrees F).
• Transfer the steaks to a cutting board or platter, tent loosely with foil and let rest 5 minutes before slicing.

GRILLED STRIP STEAKS WITH GARLIC AND OREGANO

Steps:

• Combine minced garlic, olive oil, and dried oregano in a bowl. Place steaks on a large plate and coat well on both sides with mixture. Cover lightly with plastic and place in refrigerator for 2 hours. Remove from fridge 30 minutes before going onto the grill. This will help the meat come up to temperature before coming into contact with heat.
• Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
• Remove plastic wrap from steaks and season both sides of meat with salt and black pepper.
• Place steaks on the grill and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness. Once cooked to preference, remove from heat and set onto a cutting board. Lightly tent with aluminum foil. Do not wrap tightly. Let steaks rest for 7 to 10 minutes. Slice and serve or serve steaks whole with your favorite side dishes.
