Hanger Steak With Brandied Cherries Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Bring a large cast-iron grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Pat the steak dry and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Drizzle with oil. Place the steak into the pan and sear until browned (without moving the steak), 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the steak over and cook a further 3 to 4 minutes on the second side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the pan and add to a cast-iron pan. Put the steak into the oven for 5 minutes to finish cooking through. Remove from the oven and set aside to rest on a plate while you prepare the sauce.
• Place the cast-iron pan over medium heat and add the oil to heat. Once heated, add the shallots to the pan. Saute until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the thyme leaves, and then remove the pan from flame (for safety purposes) and add the brandy. Ignite the brandy by returning to the stove top and tilting the pan toward the open flame, or carefully lighting with a lighter or match. Once the flames subside, add the cream and swirl to incorporate. Add the peppercorns and simmer the sauce until it has reduced by two-thirds to a smooth, slightly thick consistency, 3 to 5 minutes. Add any pan drippings to the sauce. Season with salt, if needed. To finish, remove the pan from the heat and swirl in the butter.
• To serve, slice the rested hanger steak into 1/2-inch strips, against the grain, and serve with a drizzle of brandied green peppercorn sauce over the top.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill on high heat.
• Place the pineapple rings in a shallow baking dish and cover with brown sugar and rum ¿ gently stir sugar and rum coating each side of the pineapple rings with mixture. Place rings on grill ¿ basting each ring with marinade until each ring has grill marks. To prepare the cherry topping, using a small non-stick saute pan let pan heat up, and put in the cherry pie filling. Then, carefully add the brandy (brandy will ignite when is shaken) reduce heat to simmer, cooking cherry mixture about 5 minutes. To plate, place 4 rings on top of each other on center of plate ¿ stick reserved pineapple stem in center going through rings, top with warm cherry mixture and shaved white chocolate.

Steps:

• For the glaze: Add the orange peel, bourbon, cherry juice and some black pepper to a small saucepan. Simmer until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Your pot may flambe from the bourbon, don't worry- just wait until the alcohol burns off. Once reduced, turn off the heat and whisk in the butter.
• Sprinkle the steak liberally with salt and pepper. Heat a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add a light coat of oil and place the steak in the pan. Cook the steak almost to desired doneness, depending on thickness, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Turn off the heat and glaze the steak on all sides in the pan while flipping. Remove the steak from the pan to rest.
• For the sandwich build: Pile some Bourbon Creamed Spinach on the bottom piece of the pretzel roll. Thinly slice the steak against the grain and place on top of the spinach. Top with some red onions and finish with the top of the roll. Repeat for the remaining sandwiches.
• Strain the thawed spinach in a colander and squeeze liquid out with a towel. Melt the butter in a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions, season with salt and pepper and cook until onions are softened, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the bourbon. Stir to combine, turn heat back on to medium and simmer 1 minute. Add the cream, and cook until the cream is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cheese and cook until melted, and then mix in the spinach to combine. Cover and cook over low heat until the spinach is tender, 8 to 10 minutes, and then season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium.
• Drizzle 2 tablespoons of oil over steaks and season all sides with salt and pepper, to taste. Put on a hot grill pan or outdoor grill. Allow the meat to cook for about 3 minutes on the first side without moving. Turn, and cook until preferred doneness is reached, another 5 minutes (just a bit more for larger cuts). Remove the steaks from the grill to a cutting board and allow to rest 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. In a medium saucepan over high heat, add the shallots and remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and cook until golden. Deglaze the pan with pomegranate juice, scraping up the brown bits, then stir in the cherry preserves. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thick. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
• Thinly slice the steak against the grain and arrange on serving plates. Serve with the cherry sauce.

Steps:

• For the steak: Place the steaks on a parchment-lined sheet pan. In a small bowl, mix the mustard powder, paprika, salt, chili powder and pepper. Sprinkle the mixture all over the steaks. Let sit at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Make the charred peppers: Heat a large braiser or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until searing hot. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the baby bell sweet and shishito peppers with the olive oil, habaneros, chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Add the pepper mixture to the braiser and lower the heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until charred in spots and tender but still with some bite, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Make the vinaigrette: While the peppers are cooking, in a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, pickled peppers, vinegar, red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Once the charred pepper mixture is cooked, add them to the vinaigrette along with the quartered pickled peppers. Toss to coat well and set aside.
• Make the aioli: In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, pepper brine, cherry peppers, paprika, garlic and salt to taste. Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
• Cook the steaks: Preheat a grill pan or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the steaks on the grill pan or grill, flipping only once, for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare or until an instant-read thermometer registers between 120 to 125 degrees F. Allow the meat to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Slice the meat against the grain to ensure tenderness. Sprinkle with the basil, chives and thyme. Serve with the charred peppers and smoky oli.
