Cilantro Garlic Lemon Sauce For Steak Recipes

SKIRT STEAK WITH CILANTRO GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt. Transfer to a blender and add remaining sauce ingredients, then blend until smooth.
• Grill steak:
• Stir together cumin, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Pat steak dry, then rub both sides of pieces with cumin mixture.
• Heat an oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over high heat until hot but not smoking, then grill steak in 2 batches, turning over occasionally, about 2 minutes per batch for thin pieces or 6 to 8 minutes per batch for thicker pieces (medium-rare). Serve steak drizzled with sauce.

GRILLED STEAK WITH SCALLION AND CILANTRO SAUCE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium-high and lightly grease the grates.
• Rub the steaks all over with 1½ teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
• Make the cilantro sauce: Add the cilantro, parsley, scallions, garlic, and jalapeño to a food processor and pulse until the herbs are coarsely chopped. Add the remaining ½ teaspoon salt, remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper, the red pepper flakes, ¼ cup olive oil, the red wine vinegar, and lime juice and puree on high speed for 20-30 seconds, until the herbs are evenly chopped. Transfer the sauce to a medium bowl and stir in the remaining ¼ cup olive oil. Season with more salt to taste.
• Place the steaks on the preheated grill and cook, uncovered, for 4½-5 minutes per side for medium, or until the steaks are cooked to your liking/depending on the thickness of the steaks. Let the steaks rest for 5-7 minutes, then slice against the grain.
• Fan the steak slices on a serving platter and spoon the cilantro scallion sauce on top.
• Enjoy!

GRILLED STEAK WITH CILANTRO SAUCE

Steps:

• Place herbs, garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper in food processor.
• Pulse until herbs are chopped.
• Gradually add oil, vinegar, lemon juice and pepper flakes, processing just until blended.
• Sprinkle steaks with remaining salt and pepper.
• Grill, covered, over medium heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare - thermometer should read 145, medium 106, well-done 170).
• Cut steaks into 1/4 inch slices
• Serve with sauce.

STEAKS WITH GARLIC CILANTRO BUTTER

Steps:

• Select steaks approx 1 inch thick. Allow steaks to come to room temperature so they cook quickly and evenly.
• Place slightly softened butter, garlic, cilantro, paprika and lemon juice in food processor, and pulse until well blended. Refrigerate resulting herb butter.
• Salt and pepper steaks.
• Grill steaks uncovered on hot bbq for 5 minutes on one side. Don't worry if it flames a bit.
• After 5 minutes, turn steaks, place lid on BBQ, close top vent half-way and cook about 8 minutes more. During this period, be sure to turn steaks every two minutes for even cooking. This should give you medium-rare to medium doneness.
• Remove steaks from grill.
• Place large dollops of herb butter on steaks, and allow steaks to rest 5 minutes on plate, covered, so juices get re-absorbed. This 5 minutes is a great time to use the BBQ to grill some veggies. I make grilled zucchini, yellow squash and portabella mushrooms. After grilling veggies, add some of the herb butter to them.
• For best flavor, use a charcoal grill with mesquite natural charcoal, but you can use a gas grill.
