1 1/2 pounds top round steak (1/2-inch thick)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon Spanish paprika
1 teaspoon New Mexican chile powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon chile de arbol powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons canola oil, plus more if needed
2 Vidalia onions, halved and thinly sliced
1 poblano chile, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 cups homemade chicken stock or low-sodium canned chicken broth
One 16-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
Splash red wine vinegar
Honey
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 small Vidalia onion, finely diced
3 ears fresh corn, kernels removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 cups stone-ground grits
1 1/2 cups grated aged white cheddar
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
3 green onions, green and pale green parts only, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish
Poached eggs, for serving, optional
Fresh parsley leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the grillades: Cut the steak in half. Sandwich each half between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or wax paper, and pound to an even 1/8-inch thickness. Sprinkle the steak on both sides with salt and pepper, and cut into 2-inch pieces.
  • Mix the paprika, New Mexican chile powder, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano and chile de arbol powder in a small bowl until combined. Put the flour in a shallow baking dish and season it with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the butter and canola oil in a large, high-sided saute pan over high heat. Working in batches, coat the steak pieces in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess, and brown them on both sides in the hot fat. Transfer the steak to a plate as you finish each batch. Add the onions, poblano and red pepper to the pan, adding more oil if needed, and cook until the vegetables are very soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the spice mixture and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the chicken stock, tomatoes, thyme and bay leaf, and bring to a boil. Return the beef to the pan, cover and transfer to the oven to cook until tender, about 45 minutes.
  • When done, remove the beef to a plate and cover to keep warm. Using potholders, move the pan to the stovetop and set over high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened into a gravy, about10 minutes. Season with a splash of vinegar. Add honey, salt and pepper to taste; stir in the parsley. Before serving, return the grillades to the pan, cover and warm them up over medium-low heat.
  • For the grits: Heat the butter and canola oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until soft. Add the corn, season with salt and pepper and cook for a few minutes. Add the milk and 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Slowly whisk in the grits until well combined and continue whisking until smooth. Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and smooth, about 45 minutes; add more water as needed to keep the mixture creamy. Remove from the heat, and whisk in the cheddar and Parmesan and the green onions.
  • To serve: Use a slotted spoon to transfer the grillades to a shallow platter. Pour over some of the gravy. Top with the grits, poached eggs if using, and some of the remaining gravy. Garnish with green onions and parsley.

PORK GRILLADES AND GRITS



Pork Grillades and Grits image

Before Hurricane Katrina came to New Orleans, John Besh was simply a good chef with a fancy restaurant that had a habit of making top 10 lists around the country. After the storm, he became known as the ex-Marine who rode into the flooded city with a gun, a boat and a bag of beans and fed New Orleans until it could feed itself. This is his take on a classic New Orleans dish of long-simmered medallions of meat in a thick gravy, served over grits, and it is totally and completely delicious. (Sam Sifton)

Time 3h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 4-pound pork shoulder, in 1/2-inch slices
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Creole seasoning mix, to taste
3 cups all-purpose flour plus more for dusting pork
2 cups canola oil
1 cup chicken fat or butter
4 each yellow onions, cut into medium dice
2 bell peppers, cut into medium dice
1 bunch celery, cut into medium dice
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons Herbs de Provence
4 bay leaves
2 tomatoes, crushed (or 2 cups canned)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
4 quarts pork or chicken stock
1 quart grits

Steps:

  • Lightly pound pork slices with a mallet. Season with salt, pepper, and Creole seasoning, and then dust in flour. Heat oil over high heat in a large Dutch oven and brown pork on both sides, in batches, for about 2 minutes per side. After browning, reserve. When pork has all been browned, discard excess oil.
  • Heat chicken fat or butter over medium heat in Dutch oven and slowly whisk in 3 cups flour to make a roux the consistency of wet sand. Brown roux, stirring constantly for about 10 minutes. Add onions, peppers, celery, garlic, Herbs de Provence, bay leaves and crushed tomatoes, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook for 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Add stock and salt, stir, and cook over medium heat until thickened, about 30 minutes. Return pork to Dutch oven and simmer over medium low heat for 2 hours, until meat is very tender.
  • While pork is cooking, bring a gallon of water to boil in a large pot and whisk in grits. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 30 minutes, whisking often to prevent sticking. Reduce heat to low and cook grits for 1 1/2 hours more, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, fold in butter, and season with salt.
  • Season pork to taste and serve over grits.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 1/2 pounds beef tenderloin, cut into chunks
1 cup all-purpose flour, seasoned with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 medium red bell peppers, seeded, and thinly sliced vertically
3 ribs celery, thinly sliced on the diagonal
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
15 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 cup red wine
3 cups veal stock
2 large tomatoes, peeled, seeded, cored and chopped
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 yellow onion, cut into a very small dice
8 cups skim milk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 cups stone-ground grits
3 tablespoons chopped thyme leaves
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Make the Grillades: Gently pound the filet tips with a smooth meat mallet to approximately 1/4-inch thickness. Place the seasoned flour in a bowl. Sprinkle the cutlets with salt and pepper, dust them with the seasoned flour, and shake any excess back into the bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup of the seasoned flour.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon canola oil and 1/2 tablespoon butter in a heavy pot or Dutch oven over high heat. Working in 3 batches, saute the floured cutlets, turning once, until well browned, about 30 seconds per side. (Add some of the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil and 1/2 tablespoon of butter between the second and third batches.) Transfer the grillades to a plate. Scrape the pot with a wooden spoon to remove any particles from the bottom.
  • Add the peppers, celery, onion, and garlic to the pot, and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and cook until tender and brown, about 8 minutes. Add the reserved seasoned flour to the vegetables and cook, stirring, until any liquid is absorbed and the vegetables start turning a darker brown, about 1 1/2 minutes. Scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to cook the flour and give the sauce some color. Add the wine, lower the heat, and simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Gradually stir in the stock, again scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, and bring to a boil. Add the tomatoes, bring to a boil again, and reduce to a slow simmer. Simmer until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon, about 30 to 45 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Make the Grits: Heat the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the milk and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a simmer while stirring occasionally. Add the grits, stir thoroughly to blend with the milk, and boil for about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until the grits thicken, about 20 to 30 minutes. Stir in the thyme. Cover, turn off the heat, and let rest for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • To serve, place 4 pieces of the grillade on each plate spoon some of the vegetables and sauce over the top. Sprinkle with green onions and spoon a portion of grits in center of each plate.

2 cups quick-cooking grits
1 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cut tenderloin into 12 cutlets, place each between sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a mallet until very thin, about 1/8 inch. In a small dish, mix 1 cup of the flour with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper. Lightly dust each cutlet on both sides, set aside on a plate. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil and sauté cutlets in batches of 4 at a time. Cook for 1 minute on each side. Repeat with remaining oil and cutlets. In same skillet, cook bacon. Transfer bacon to a paper-lined plate, keeping bacon fat in skillet. Reduce heat, whisk in remaining flour. Simmer and stir continuously until roux becomes light brown, about 10 minutes. Add bell peppers, onion and garlic and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Carefully whisk in remaining salt and pepper, Creole spice, cumin, paprika and bay leaves. Next, whisk in stock and tomato. Bring sauce to a simmer, and cook on low for 10 minutes, skimming off excess fat. Strain sauce through a sieve and then return to skillet; warm pork cutlets in sauce.
  • Make the Grits: Scald milk (skin forms on top). Whisk in grits and cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, whisking again now and then. Whisk in butter, cream, salt and pepper. Cover and remove from heat. It will stay hot for about 15 or 20 minutes, covered.
