Best Grilled Steak Sandwiches With Marinated Watercress Onion And Tomato Salad Recipes

GRILLED STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Mix all of the marinade ingredients together in a bowl and pour it into a large gallon-sized resealable plastic bag. Add the steak and turn to make sure it is completely covered by the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 12, turning the bag occasionally.
• Melt the butter in a heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Once melted add the flour and stir until it becomes a light blonde color. Slowly whisk in milk. Bring the milk up to a simmer while stirring. Once at a simmer, stir in the cheese, a handful at a time. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Keep warm until ready to use.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Toss green onions in a bowl with olive oil, and salt and pepper, to taste.
• Remove the steak from the marinade and let the excess drain off. Grill the steak for 5 to 7 minutes per side for medium-rare and about 8 to 10 minutes for medium. Remove the steak from the grill to a cutting board and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• While the steak rests, put the green onions and baguettes on the grill. Cook the green onions until charred and soft, about 4 minutes, and toast the bread until golden.
• To assemble, slice the steak, at a 45 degree angle, into very thin slices across the grain. Put some of the steak on the bottom of each roll, top with some grilled green onions, and smother with provolone cheese sauce. Cover with the top of the roll and serve.

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH WATERCRESS AND SALSA

Steps:

• For the salsa: Prepare a grill for high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates. Cut 6 of the tomatoes in half and place them on the grill with the jalapenos. Char, turning regularly to promote even cooking, until the skins are blackened, about 20 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the grill and set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the top off the bulb of garlic. Place the garlic bulb on a sheet pan and roast until the garlic is tender and can be squeezed out of the bulb, 30 to 45 minutes. While hot, turn the bulb upside down and squeeze the bulb from the root end to the top, pushing the roasted garlic cloves out of the bulb. Crush and chop 4 cloves of the roasted garlic and stir together with the red onions and cilantro in a bowl. (Save the remaining roasted garlic for another use.)
• Quarter and seed the remaining 6 tomatoes and dice the flesh. Add to the bowl with the garlic and onions. Remove some of the charred skin from the roasted tomatoes, then dice the tomatoes with the seeds. Put them into the bowl with the rest of the salsa ingredients.
• Remove some of the charred skin from the jalapenos and cut in half. Remove the seeds and dice the jalapeno. Add to the bowl with rest of the salsa.
• Add the lime juice and mix the salsa. Season to taste with salt and pepper and let the salsa sit for at least 30 minutes before serving.
• For the smoked tomatillo rice: Heat a smoker to 350 degrees F. Drain 1 cup hickory wood chips that have been soaked for 1 hour and add them to the smoking pan of a smoker.
• Put the tomatillos and red onions in a perforated pan and place in the smoker. Smoke the vegetables for 10 minutes, then remove from the smoker and transfer to a blender. Add the cilantro and honey and puree until slightly chunky. Season with salt and pepper. (If it is still tart, add more honey).
• Bring 2 1/4 cups water to a boil in a pot. Stir in the rice and cover. Reduce the heat to low and cook the rice until all of the liquid has been absorbed, 12 to 15 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork, then stir in 1 cup of the tomatillo salsa (save the remainder for another use). Cover again and hold warm for plating.
• For the guacamole: Combine the cilantro and yellow onion in a blender and blend until almost pureed but still a little chunky.
• Scoop the flesh out of the avocados and put them in a bowl. Add the onion-cilantro puree and mash the avocados with a fork. Add the tomato, red onion and lime juice and mix well. Season with the salt and cover with plastic wrap directly touching the guacamole.
• For the vinaigrette: Combine the lime juice, cilantro and honey in a bowl, then slowly whisk in the vegetable oil and olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• For the skirt steak: Combine the vegetable oil, olive oil, cilantro and garlic. Pour over the steaks and marinate the steaks for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
• Prepare the grill for high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates. Remove the steak from the marinade. Season with salt and pepper and cook until grill marks appear, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Heat a skillet or saute pan over medium heat on the stovetop. Transfer the marked steak to the skillet and finish cooking on the stovetop over medium heat, flipping once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Allow the steak to rest 5 to 10 minutes before slicing against the grain and on a bias.
• For plating: Divide the rice among 6 plates. Lay the sliced steak over the top of the rice. Top each plate with a large tablespoon of the guacamole.
• Combine the watercress and red onions in a bowl and dress them with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette. Toss the watercress salad and divide among the plates, piling it on top of the steak. Spoon 2 to 3 ounces of salsa over the top of each salad. Sprinkle the plate with a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.

GRILLED-STEAK SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Let steaks stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Heat grill to high. Brush grates with oil. Season steaks with salt and pepper. Grill for 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest for 10 minutes. Thinly slice steaks across the grain.
• Meanwhile, drizzle tomatoes with oil; season with salt and pepper. Brush bread with oil. Grill tomatoes until lightly charred and soft, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Grill cut sides of bread until lightly charred, 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
• Layer sliced steak and grilled tomatoes over bottom halves of bread. Garnish with basil and romaine leaves, drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Sandwich with top halves of bread. Cut each loaf crosswise into 6 sandwiches.

GRILLED BEEF SKIRT STEAK WITH ONION MARINADE

Steps:

• Make the onion marinade:
• Combine the onion, garlic, 1/4 cup of the oil, and water in a blender; blend until smooth. Put the skirt steak in a large resealable plastic bag or baking dish and pour in the onion mixture, coating both sides. Cover or wrap the meat well so the onion scent does not permeate your refrigerator; chill for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
• To make the skirt steak:
• Prepare a grill to medium-high heat.
• Remove the steak from the marinade and season both sides with the kosher salt and pepper. Transfer the meat to the grill and let cook until one side is well seared, 3 minutes. Flip and cook for 2 minutes more, for rare to medium-rare. At this point, remove the steak from the grill and let rest for 2 minutes to allow the carryover heat to give it a more even doneness. Finally, return the steak to the grill and cook for 1 minute more per side (this guarantees this thin cut of steak will be served hot). (Add another minute of cooking on the second side for medium doneness.) Remove the skirt steak from the grill and let rest 1 to 2 minutes before slicing and serving.
• Cut each steak with the grain into three sections. Turn each piece to slice against the grain at a 45-degree angle. Slice into 1/4-inch pieces on a slight bias against the grain. You should get about 5 slices per cut piece, about 15 slices total. Transfer the meat to a warmed plate. Garnish with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and smoked sea salt and serve with the chimichurri.
