Gingered Steak And Napa Cabbage Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Finely shred the head of cabbage; do not chop. Combine the green onions and cabbage in a large bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Make the crunchies: Melt the butter in a pot. Mix the ramen noodles, sesame seeds and almonds into the pot with the melted butter. Spoon the mixture onto a baking sheet and bake the crunchies in the preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven, turning often to make sure they do not burn. When they are browned remove them from the oven.
• Make the dressing: In a small saucepan, heat vinegar, oil, sugar, and soy sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil, let boil for 1 minute. Remove the pan from heat and let cool.
• Combine dressing, crunchies, and cabbage immediately before serving. Serve right away or the crunchies will get soggy.

Steps:

• Put the garlic in a large salad bowl and mix in all the remaining ingredients except the cabbage.
• Trim the cabbage, removing and discarding damaged or wilted leaves, and cut the head crosswise into 1-inch slices. You should have about 8 cups. Wash well and spin dry in a salad dryer (moisture would dilute the dressing). Ten or 15 minutes before serving, add the cabbage to the dressing, toss well and set aside, so the dressing can penetrate the cabbage and soften it slightly.

Steps:

• For the steak: In a wide, shallow container with a lid, add the avocado or vegetable oil, soy sauce, sugar, ginger, garlic and sesame oil. Whisk to combine. Add the steak and coat in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours. Remove the steak from the refrigerator to come to room temperature before cooking, about 1 hour.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, pat dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare with an internal temperature of 125 degrees F. Remove from the heat and set aside to rest, about 10 minutes. Squeeze the juice of the lime on the rested steak and slice against the grain.
• For the salad: Cook the udon noodles according to the package instructions.
• In a small bowl, combine the avocado or vegetable oil, soy sauce, vinegar, honey, mustard, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, salt and lime juice. Whisk thoroughly to combine and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the cabbage and kale. Add the carrots, cilantro, mint, scallions, chiles and noodles and toss to combine. Add the dressing and toss to coat. Add the mango and gently toss. Sprinkle the salad with the peanuts. Arrange the steak over the salad.
• Divide the salad and steak among plates. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Whisk marinade ingredients in medium bowl. Place beef steaks and 1/2 cup marinade in food-safe plastic bag; turn steaks to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 15 minutes to 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for dressing.
• Preheat charcoal grill to medium heat.
• Remove steaks from marinade; discard marinade. Sprinkle steaks with pepper. Place steaks in center of grill over medium, ash-covered coals; arrange onion around steaks.
• Grill steaks, uncovered, 15 to 18 minutes for medium-rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally. Grill onions 15 to 20 minutes or until tender, turning occasionally.
• Carve steaks into slices. Cut onion slices into quarters. Toss cabbage, onion and 2 tablespoons reserved dressing in large bowl. Arrange beef on cabbage mixture. Drizzle with some of the dressing. Pass remaining dressing.

Steps:

• Make marinade:
• In a shallow bowl stir together marinade ingredients.
• Add filets to marinade, turning to coat, and marinate at room temperature 15 minutes. Remove filets from marinade, letting excess drip off, and reserve marinade. In a 10-inch non-stick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté filets about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare meat. Transfer filets to a cutting board.
• In any drippings remaining in skillet cook mushrooms with salt, stirring frequently, until golden, about 3 minutes. Add reserved marinade, water, and honey and bring to a boil. Remove skillet from heat and cool mixture 10 minutes.
• In a large bowl combine cabbage, mizuna or arugula, bell pepper, pear, scallions, and all but 4 sprigs coriander. Add mushroom mixture and toss to coat. Cut filets into thin slices. Mound cabbage mixture on 4 dinner plates and arrange steak slices on top. Garnish with reserved coriander sprigs.

Steps:

• For the steak and marinade: Combine the soy sauce, sherry, brown sugar and garlic in a resealable plastic bag. Mix together, place the steak in the bag and seal. Marinate for 5 minutes (or up to 2 hours if you have time).
• For the salad dressing: Combine the olive oil, soy sauce, ginger, lime juice, granulated sugar, garlic and jalapenos in a small bowl.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. When hot, brush it with the olive oil. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting any excess drain off, and cook to medium rare on the grill pan, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the steak to a plate, allowing it to cool slightly.
• For the salad: In a bowl, toss the salad greens, tomatoes and half of the green onions with about three-quarters of the salad dressing.
• Place the steak on a cutting board and slice thinly, then pour the juices from the plate over the top of the steak. Mound the tossed salad on a serving plate, then arrange the sliced steak on top. Pour the remaining salad dressing over the top. Sprinkle the remaining green onions over the salad and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, mustard, ginger, and oils until dressing is smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl, combine cabbage, bell pepper, cilantro, and peanuts. Add dressing to taste, and toss to combine. Serve.

Steps:

• Place chicken breasts between two sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Using a rolling pin or a bottle, pound each to an even ½-inch thickness. Season both sides with salt.
• In a small bowl, combine the ginger, garlic, cilantro, cayenne and 4 tablespoons oil. Finely grate the lime zest directly into the bowl; reserve the lime. Rub both sides of the chicken breasts with the marinade. Let sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the cabbage lengthwise, core it, then slice crosswise into ½-inch-thick strips. Transfer to a large bowl and toss in the cucumber slices, chives and mint leaves.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in 1 tablespoon oil and heat until shimmering, about 1 minute. Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook, turning once, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Cut the reserved lime in half and squeeze the juice over the chicken; slice the chicken. Transfer the chicken to serving plates and slice.
• Toss the cabbage mixture with the vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Season to taste with salt and serve alongside the chicken.
