Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons grill seasoning, such as McCormick's Montreal Steak Seasoning
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (eyeball it)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) (eyeball it)
2 pounds flank steak
1 8-ounce package buttermilk biscuit mix, such as Jiffy brand
1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles
1 vine-ripe tomato
1 small bunch of watercress, trimmed and cleaned
4 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to high heat.
  • Mix together the garlic, grill seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Whisk in the EVOO. Pour into a 9 x 13-inch glass dish or a sealable plastic bag. Add the flank steak and coat it evenly in marinade. Let stand for 10 minutes.
  • While the steak is marinating, prepare the biscuits. Place the biscuit mix in a bowl, add the blue cheese crumbles, and mix with a fork to distribute. Add water, according to the package directions. Once combined, dump the biscuit mix out on a cutting board. Using your fingertips, press out the mix into a 1-inch-thick square. Divide the square with a knife into 4 squares. Arrange the biscuits on a foil-lined cookie sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the biscuits are cooked through and the bottoms are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Grill the flank steak for 6 to 7 minutes on each side or to your preferred doneness. Remove the flank steak from the grill and let the juices redistribute before slicing.
  • Thinly slice the tomato and coarsely chop the watercress; reserve.
  • To serve, thinly slice the rested meat on an angle, cutting against the grain. (To make easy work of the slicing, use a sharp knife.) Split each of the four biscuits in half. Arrange a slice or two of tomato on the bottom of each biscuit. Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper. Top the tomatoes with some of the sliced steak. Top that with a dollop of sour cream and a little of the chopped watercress. Set the biscuit top in place or slightly to the side. Wow! What a looker!
