Skirt Steak With Shallots Recipes

SKIRT STEAK TACOS WITH SHALLOT RINGS

Steps:

• Add the skirt steak to a shallow dish. Add the sherry, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper. Carefully toss to combine, then marinate the skirt steak for 30 to 45 minutes at room temperature. (Optional: Use a fork to prick the steak many times to help the marinade do its job.)
• Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for cooking over direct medium-high heat.
• Remove the steak from the marinade and pat dry. Grill on one side for about 5 minutes, then flip and continue to grill until medium-rare, another 3 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Heat the tortillas over a direct flame until the desired char is reached on both sides. Place in a covered pan and keep warm in the oven.
• Slice the skirt steak against the grain. Make tacos with the steak and Avocado Salsa, then garnish each with Shallot Rings and cilantro leaves.
• Mix together the cilantro, garlic, jalapeno and onion on a cutting board. Add the lime juice and salt and continue mincing until combined. Add this mixture to the halved avocado flesh in a bowl and mash with a fork until the avocados are broken down and everything is combined.
• Soak the shallots in the buttermilk in a bowl for up to 30 minutes. Preheat 3 inches oil in a large Dutch oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the grits in a large paper bag. Pour off the buttermilk from the shallots, then add the shallots to the bag and shake to coat. Add the coated shallots to the oil in batches and fry until crispy, about 2 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt.

STEAK WITH SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the steaks on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet, large enough to hold the steaks in one layer, until it is fiery hot. Add the oil and quickly coat the bottom of the skillet. Add the steaks and cook until well browned, about 3 minutes. Turn the steaks and continue cooking on the second side about 3 minutes. If you want the steak medium rare, cook 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a warm platter.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small skillet or saucepan and add the shallots. Cook, stirring often, until they are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter and cook until bubbling hot. Spoon the shallots over the meat and pour any remaining butter over all. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

SKIRT STEAK WITH ROASTED SHALLOTS, BROCCOLINI, AND HORSERADISH SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425° F. Combine the sour cream, horseradish, parsley, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Toss the broccolini, shallots, 3 tablespoons of the oil, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, tossing once, until browned and tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook, in batches, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest piece registers 130° F, 2 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.
• Serve the steak with the roasted vegetables and horseradish sauce.

SKIRT STEAK WITH SHALLOTS

Steps:

• To cook the steak, in a heavy-duty skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Add the meat to the skillet without crowding, in batches, if necessary, and cook on both sides until well browned and medium-rare, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a warm plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm while preparing the sauce.
• To prepare the sauce, return the pan to the cooktop over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and the shallots. Cook until the shallots are soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the vinegar and stir to combine. Cook until the vinegar evaporates, 30 to 45 seconds. Add the red wine and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter; swirl to coat. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper.
• To serve, slice the steak into thin strips against the grain. Overlap the slices on a plate and pour over the red wine glaze.
