Best Stripped Steak Recipes

SPECIAL STRIP STEAKS

Steps:

• Rub steaks with garlic and sprinkle with salt and pepper; set aside. Melt butter in a large skillet. Add the sherry or broth, Worcestershire sauce and onion. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes., Add the steaks and cook over medium heat for 3-7 minutes on each side or until the meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°, medium, 140°, medium-well, 145°).

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.

NY STRIP STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Allow the steaks to come to room temperature, 30 to 45 minutes. Season the steaks with some kosher salt. Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until hot, about 2 minutes. Add the olive oil to the pan. Carefully place the steaks in the pan and allow them to sear untouched until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip the steaks and take the pan off the heat. Add the butter and thyme sprigs. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks and continue to baste for about 45 seconds. Transfer the skillet to the center of the oven and cook the steaks until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 135 degrees F., 5 to 7 minutes for medium-rare.
• Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven, transfer the steaks to a cutting board and allow the meat to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Slice the steaks and arrange on a serving plate. Spoon the remaining pan sauce over the steaks, sprinkle with sea salt and drizzle with olive oil.

THE PERFECT NEW YORK STRIP STEAK

Steps:

• Roast the steaks at low heat: Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Season steaks generously with salt on all sides. Place steaks on a wire rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet; this will ensure even airflow all around the steaks as they cook. Cook for 25-35 minutes, checking after 20 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F. (Note: Once the temperature reaches 80 degrees F, it will climb quickly.) For an accurate temperature, place the thermometer through the side into the center of the steak. When steak reaches 125 degrees F, let rest 10 minutes.
• Sear the steaks: Heat skillet over high heat. Add the oil and heat until smoking; then add the steaks. Cook for 1 minute, undisturbed. Flip steaks, drain off the fat, then cook another 1 minute, undisturbed. Meanwhile, gently smash the garlic cloves with the heel of your hand until you hear a crack, leaving the peels attached.Add 2 tablespoons of butter, garlic cloves, thyme, and rosemary to the skillet. Tilt the pan and continually baste the steaks with the hot butter as it browns and gets foamy. Take the pan off the heat as you baste if the butter is browning too quickly or the herbs and garlic are starting to burn. Add remaining tablespoon of butter; once the first side is well-browned, flip the steaks and continue basting-a French technique called arroser-until the butter is no longer foamy. (Once the steaks have been flipped, Chef Pandel continues basting with his pan entirely off the heat; you may need to do the same, depending on the variables of stove temperature, pan, and the steaks themselves.) When it's no longer foamy, the butter has done its job and the steaks should be well seared with a nice crust. Check the temperature of the steaks: for medium-rare, the internal temperature should be 125 degrees F-130 degrees F. Remove steaks to the rack to rest, about 10 minutes. Serve right away.
