Steak With Pesto Pierogi Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high. Whisk the mustard, olive oil and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Season the steak with salt and pepper, then coat with half of the mustard mixture; let sit at room temperature 10 minutes. Combine the sour cream and chives in another small bowl and season with salt and pepper; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Transfer the steak to the grill and cook 5 minutes; flip, brush with half of the remaining mustard mixture and cook 5 more minutes. Flip again and brush with the rest of the mustard mixture; cook 5 to 8 more minutes for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the pierogi and cook as the label directs. Put the spinach in a colander. Drain the pierogi in the colander with the spinach so the spinach wilts. Return the pierogi and spinach to the pot and stir in the butter; season with salt and pepper.
• Slice the steak against the grain; divide among plates along with the pierogi and spinach. Top the pierogi with the chive sour cream.

Steps:

• Slice beef horizontally into 1/4-inch strips and transfer into a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and the sugar. Mix well and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour; longer is fine.
• Preheat an oven to 200 degrees F (90 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with a silicone liner (such as Silpat®).
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add French fries and cook until golden and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to the prepared pan and place in the preheated oven to keep warm.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet over high heat until the oil begins to smoke. Sear the beef strips in 2 or 3 smaller batches, until browned but still pink in places, for 1 to 2 minutes per batch. You don't want to cook the meat all the way through, as it will finish cooking with the vegetables later. As each batch of beef is browned, transfer to a plate or bowl, and reserve.
• Place the skillet back over high heat, and add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Transfer in red onion, bell pepper, habanero, and green onion, along with a large pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the onions and peppers just begin to soften, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add garlic and ginger to the pan; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add tomato wedges and cook, stirring, until they begin to soften and start to release their juices, about 3 minutes. Add remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, white vinegar, and the browned beef into the pan, along with any accumulated juices, and stir to combine.
• Stir cilantro and crispy, cooked French fries into the pan, tossing everything to combine. Taste for salt and adjust if needed. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine basil, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and pine nuts in a food processor and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
• Rub salt over steaks. Spread some pesto evenly on both steaks and place into an oven-safe glass dish. Pour oil into the dish, ensuring there is enough oil to submerge the steaks.
• Cook steaks in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 135 degrees F (57 degrees C). Drain steaks and blot off excess oil.
• Heat a cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steaks in the hot oil on both sides and the edges for 30 to 45 seconds.
