Grilled Steak With Southwestern Three Tomato Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• In a food processor, puree plum tomatoes, jalapeno, lime juice, and cumin; transfer to a small bowl. Stir in yellow and sun-dried tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Just before serving, drain off any accumulated liquid, and stir in oil from sun-dried tomatoes.
• Heat grill to medium-high; lightly oil grates. Season steaks with salt and pepper. Place on grill; cover. Cook, turning once, about 8 minutes for medium-rare. Top with tomato salsa and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high. Combine the oil, garlic and rosemary in a shallow dish. Add the lamb, turn to coat and season with salt and pepper. Mix the parsley and olives in a bowl.
• Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon into a bowl. Put the peppers skin-side down on the grill; cook until blistered, brushing with the lemon juice and seasoning with salt, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
• Meanwhile, grill the remaining 2 lemons cut-side down until charred, about 5 minutes; set aside. Grill the scallions, turning, until tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and coarsely chop, then add to the olive mixture and season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the lamb until marked, about 4 minutes per side for medium rare. (A thermometer inserted into the thickest part should register 140 degrees F.) Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Slice against the grain, add to the platter and top with the scallion-olive mixture. Squeeze the grilled lemons on top.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Slice 2 tomatoes in half and brush each half with oil. Brush onion with oil. Transfer onions and tomatoes halves to hot grill and cook, turning occasionally, until slightly charred and softened, about 10 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Remove seeds from remaining 2 tomatoes and cut into 1/4" cubes. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add jalapeño and salt and toss to combine. Finely chop cooled onions and tomatoes, then add to raw tomato mixture and toss to combine.
• Do Ahead
• Salsa can be made 1 day ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the tomatoes, garlic, chiles, shallots and onions cut-side up on a baking sheet. Drizzle the vegetables with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the vegetables to the grill and grill until all the vegetables are blistered and charred, 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally. Let the vegetables cool slightly. Peel the garlic and remove the skins of the tomatoes. Transfer the vegetables to a food processor, add the cilantro and pulse until you have a chunky salsa. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place the steaks in a single layer in a large glass or ceramic baking dish. Whisk the remaining ingredients together in a bowl and pour over the steaks, making sure both sides are coated. Cover loosely and refrigerate for 12, or preferably 24 hours, turning every 2 or 3 hours.
• 1 1 /2 hours before serving, make the sauce: combine the tomatoes, vinegar, cilantro, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a blender. Blend for 1 minute, or until smooth and emulsified. Transfer to a glass or ceramic bowl, add the onion and green pepper, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit at room temperature.
• Half an hour before serving, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature.
• When ready to serve, preheat a grill or griddle pan to high heat. Shake the steaks dry and grill them for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, or until done to your liking. Let the steaks rest, loosely covered with foil, for 5 to 7 minutes. Carve the meat across the grain into 1 inch slices and serve with white rice and Molho Campanha.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high; clean and lightly oil hot grates. Generously season steak with salt and pepper.
• Grill steak 8 minutes, rotating 90 degrees halfway through. Flip steak and cook 8 minutes more for medium-rare (a thermometer inserted horizontally into center of meat should register 125 degrees), rotating again halfway through. Let rest 8 to 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Make salsa: In a food processor, puree plum tomatoes, jalapeño, lime juice, and cumin; transfer to a small bowl. Stir in yellow and sun-dried tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat grill to medium-high (see page 367 for instructions); lightly oil grates. Pat dry steaks with paper towels. Season on both sides with salt and pepper. Cover grill; cook, turning once, about 8 minutes for medium-rare. Just before serving, stir oil from sun-dried tomatoes into salsa. Serve steaks topped with salsa.
• To prepare the tomatoes, cut off both ends with a sharp chef's knife, then make a lengthwise cut about 1/4 inch into tomato. Leave blade in place as you rotate fruit, removing core and seedy pulp. Then cut firm outer flesh as desired.
