Grass Fed Rib Eye Nachos Recipes

Steps:

• Put the oil, garlic, cilantro, soy sauce, orange juice, cumin and oregano in a blender or small food processor and blend until combined, 10 to 20 seconds. Pour the marinade into a gallon resealable bag. Add the steak, force out as much air as possible, seal the bag and massage the
• marinade into the steak. Allow the steak to marinate for 30 minutes on the counter or overnight in the refrigerator.
• Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• When ready to grill, remove the steak from the marinade and pat dry with paper
• towels. Discard the marinade. Season the steak with salt and pepper. If using an outdoor grill, brush the grill clean and oil the grill grate. Grill the steak until charred on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until the steak reaches the desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat and allow to rest on a cutting board for 5 to 10 minutes.
• While the steak rests, place the chips on the prepared sheet pan and bake until warm, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Slice the beef into 1/2-inch-thick strips, then slice across to make 1/2-inch cubes. Pull the hot chips out of the oven. To build the nachos, start by topping them with the steak cubes. Then sprinkle them evenly with the Cheddar and Monterey Jack. Bake until the cheese melts, about 4 minutes. Finish by topping the chips with avocado and pico de gallo and drizzling with crema. Garnish with scallions and jalapeno and serve hot.

Steps:

• For the blue cheese butter: Whisk together the butter, blue cheese, chives, honey, mustard and lemon zest in a bowl until uniform. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Using a spatula, scrape out onto plastic wrap, then form into a log and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• For the black powder rub: Toast the sesame seeds, peppercorns, poppy seeds and mustard seeds in a dry pan until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a small food processor, blender or spice grinder along with the salt, brown sugar, granulated garlic and dehydrated onion and pulse until finely ground.
• For the rib eyes: Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with foil and fit a rack inside.
• Brush the steaks with vegetable oil and coat in a good amount of the black powder rub. Place on the wire-racked sheet pan and roast until the internal temperature registers 115 to 120 degrees F, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little vegetable oil to the bottom and sear the steak until properly charred, about a minute per side. (Don't forget to hold the steak upright with tongs to sear the edges.) Transfer to a warm plate. (See Cook's Note.)
• Slice a medallion of the cold blue cheese butter and place it on top of each steak. Very carefully ignite a rosemary sprig with a torch to get it smoking (blow out any flame; you just want the smoke) and place it on top of the steak and butter. Immediately cover with a cloche or dome to trap in the smoke. Repeat with the remaining steak. Serve and slice tableside, if desired, into manageable pieces.

Steps:

• Simmer vinegar in small pan over medium heat until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 6 minutes. Add shallots, 1/4 cup oil, and crushed red pepper; return to simmer. Remove from heat; whisk in parsley, capers, and thyme. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
• Rub both sides of steaks with oil and garlic. Mix paprika, 2 teaspoons coarse salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper in small bowl. Sprinkle on both sides of steaks. Let stand at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush grill rack with oil to coat. Grill steaks until cooked to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to plates. Spoon vinaigrette over.
