THIS WEEK'S TASTY RECIPE (SEPTEMBER 10, 2007) |
Grilled Tiger Steak w/Jalapeno Sauce
2 tbs Minced fresh parsley leaves 1 Small Garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with teaspoon salt 2 small pickled jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced to a paste (wear rubber gloves) 2 Tablespoons olive oil 3/4 to 1 skirt steak, halved crosswise
In a small bowl, stir together the parsley, the garlic paste, the jalapenos, the oil, and salt and pepper to taste until mixture is well. Grill the steak, seasoned generously with salt and pepper, on an oiled rack. Set about 6 inches over glowing coals for 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare meat. Transfer the steak to a cutting board, let it stand for 5 minutes, and cut it across the grain into thin slices. Divide the steak between 2 plates; top it with some of the parsley jalapeno sauce.
*Sauce can also be made in a food processor. |
