Homemade Pepper Steak: A Delightful Family Meal for Six People

Pepper steak is a delightful dish that brings the rich and savory flavors of a restaurant-quality meal straight to your dinner table. This recipe will help you prepare pepper steak for six people, blending the robust tastes of steak, bell peppers, and onions. Ideal for family gatherings or casual dinners, pepper steak is not only bursting with flavor but also boasts visual appeal, making every meal a complete sensory delight. Whether you’re a seasoned chef or a home cook, this pepper steak recipe ensures a memorable dining experience with every bite.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 to 2 pounds of flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil (for cooking)
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 2 bell peppers (red and green), sliced
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh ginger, minced (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of cornstarch dissolved in 2 tablespoons of water (for thickening)
  • 1 teaspoon of black pepper (adjust to taste)
  • Salt to taste
  • Cooked rice (for serving)

Instructions:

  1. Marinate the Steak:

    • Combine the sliced steak, soy sauce, black pepper, and a bit of salt in a bowl. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to an hour. This not only infuses the steak with flavor but also tenderizes it, ensuring that each bite is juicy and delicious.

  2. Prepare the Vegetables:

    • While the steak marinates, prepare your veggies. Slice the onion and bell peppers into thin strips, and mince the garlic and ginger. This prep work ensures everything cooks evenly and quickly, keeping the vegetables crisp and vibrant.

  3. Cook the Steak:

    • Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat.
    • Add the marinated steak in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches) and cook for about 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove the cooked steak from the skillet and set aside.

  4. Stir-Fry the Vegetables:

    • In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil, then add the sliced onion and stir-fry for about 2 minutes.
    • Add the bell peppers, garlic, and ginger (if using) and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

  5. Combine and Thicken:

    • Return the cooked steak to the skillet with the vegetables.
    • Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook for another minute until the sauce thickens slightly and everything is well combined. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

  6. Serve:

    • Serve the pepper steak over cooked rice, and enjoy your meal!

Tips:

  • You can also add other vegetables like broccoli or carrots to the mix.
  • For a bit of sweetness, consider adding a tablespoon of sugar to the marinade.
  • Adjust the level of spiciness by adding chili flakes if desired.

Peppercorn-Crusted Sirloin Steak: How to Prepare at Home for Six People

Elevate your dinner with this delicious recipe for peppercorn-crusted sirloin steak. Follow these steps to create a mouth-watering meal for six people.

Ingredients:

  • 3 large sirloin steaks (each about 12-16 ounces, 1.5 inches thick)
  • 3 tablespoons whole black peppercorns, coarsely crushed
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary sprigs (optional)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons brandy or cognac (optional)

Equipment:

  • Cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed frying pan
  • Tongs
  • Meat thermometer
  • Aluminum foil
  • Rolling pin or mortar and pestle (to crush peppercorns)

Preparation:

  1. Prepare the Steaks:

    • Pat the steaks dry with paper towels.
    • Season both sides with sea salt.
    • Press the crushed peppercorns onto both sides of the steaks to form a crust. Let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.

  2. Heat the Skillet:

    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
    • Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 tablespoons of olive oil and heat until it shimmers.

  3. Sear the Steaks:

    • Sear the steaks in batches to avoid overcrowding. Place the steaks in the skillet and sear each side for about 3-4 minutes, until a brown crust forms.
    • Remove the steaks from the skillet and transfer them to a baking sheet. Set aside.

  4. Make the Sauce:

    • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining olive oil and butter to the skillet.
    • Add the crushed garlic and fresh herbs, if using. Sauté for about 1 minute.
    • If using brandy or cognac, add it now and carefully ignite with a long lighter for a flambé effect. Let the alcohol burn off.
    • Add the beef broth and heavy cream, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let the sauce simmer and reduce for about 5 minutes.

  5. Finish in the Oven:

    • Transfer the seared steaks to the oven. Roast for about 5-7 minutes for medium-rare, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C). Adjust the cooking time based on your desired level of doneness.
    • Remove the steaks from the oven and let them rest on a cutting board, tented with aluminum foil, for about 10 minutes.

  6. Serve:

    • Slice the steaks against the grain.
    • Drizzle the peppercorn sauce over the sliced steaks and serve.

Tips:

  • Crushing Peppercorns: Use a rolling pin or a mortar and pestle to crush the peppercorns. They should be coarse, not finely ground.
  • Resting: Letting the steak rest is crucial for retaining juices and flavor.

Steak Diane: How to Prepare at Home for Six People

Steak Diane is a classic dish featuring tender steak with a rich, flavorful sauce. Here’s a step-by-step guide to prepare Steak Diane for six people at home.

Ingredients:

  • 6 beef tenderloin steaks (about 6-8 ounces each, 1-inch thick)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small shallot, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup brandy or cognac
  • 1 cup beef stock
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Equipment:

  • Heavy-bottomed frying pan or skillet
  • Tongs
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Wooden spoon or spatula

Preparation:

  1. Season the Steaks:

  2. Heat the Pan:

    • Heat 3 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the butter melts and begins to foam.

  3. Cook the Steaks:

    • Add the steaks to the skillet in batches to avoid overcrowding. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until a brown crust forms.
    • Transfer the seared steaks to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

  4. Prepare the Sauce:

    • Reduce the heat to medium and add the shallots and garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes, until softened.
    • Carefully add the brandy or cognac to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. If you want a dramatic flair, you can flambé the alcohol by igniting it with a long lighter (be cautious!).
    • Once the alcohol has mostly evaporated, add the beef stock, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice. Stir to combine.

  5. Finish the Sauce:

    • Stir in the heavy cream and bring the sauce to a simmer. Let it cook for about 2-3 minutes, until it thickens slightly.
    • Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter and stir until melted and the sauce is smooth.

    • Return the steaks to the skillet, along with any accumulated juices. Spoon the sauce over the steaks and let them cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (medium-rare is 130°F / 54°C).

  7. Serve:

    • Transfer the steaks to serving plates, spooning the sauce over each steak.
    • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Tips:

  • Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check the doneness of your steaks to ensure they are cooked to your preference.
  • Flambé: If you choose to flambé the brandy or cognac, ensure there are no flammable items nearby and exercise caution.

Pan Seared Porterhouse Steak

CategoriesRecipesPosted on

Preparing a pan-seared porterhouse steak at home for six people can be a delightful experience. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you achieve a perfect, restaurant-quality steak

Ingredients: 

  • 3 large porterhouse steaks (each steak serves 2 people)
  • Salt (preferably kosher salt)
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 cloves garlic, crushed
  • Fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs (optional)

Equipment:

  • Cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed frying pan
  • Tongs
  • Meat thermometer
  • Aluminum foil

Preparation:

  1. Choose the Right Steaks:

    • Make sure your porterhouse steaks are at least 1.5 inches thick. This thickness ensures a good sear while keeping the inside juicy.

  2. Season the Steaks:

    • Pat the steaks dry with paper towels.
    • Generously season both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps the steaks cook more evenly.

  3. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). You’ll finish the steaks in the oven after searing.

  4. Heat the Skillet:

    • Place your cast-iron skillet on the stove over high heat. Add the oil and heat until it begins to shimmer and just starts to smoke.

  5. Sear the Steaks:

    • Using tongs, place the steaks in the skillet. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until a deep brown crust forms. Do not move the steaks around during searing.

  6. Add Butter and Aromatics:

    • After searing both sides, add butter, garlic, and rosemary or thyme to the skillet.
    • Tilt the skillet slightly and use a spoon to baste the steaks with the melted butter for about 1 minute.

  7. Finish in the Oven:

    • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
    • For medium-rare, cook until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C). This usually takes about 5-7 minutes, but use a meat thermometer to check doneness.

  8. Rest the Steaks:

    • Remove the steaks from the oven and transfer them to a cutting board.
    • Tent the steaks with aluminum foil and let them rest for about 10 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

  9. Serving:

    • Slice the steaks against the grain and serve on a large platter. Each porterhouse steak should be enough for two people, so slice accordingly.

Tips:

  • Avoid Overcrowding: If your skillet is not large enough to sear all three steaks at once, sear them in batches. Overcrowding the pan will lower the temperature and result in steaming rather than searing.
  • Basting: Continuously spoon the butter over the steaks during the basting step to enhance flavor and achieve a beautiful crust.
  • Thermometer: Always use a meat thermometer to ensure your steaks are cooked to the desired doneness.

Pasta Puttanesca is a vibrant and bold Italian dish celebrated for its pungent and savory flavors that embody the essence of Mediterranean cuisine. Originating from Naples, this dish combines simple ingredients with robust flavors including tomatoes, olives, capers, and anchovies to create a rich, aromatic sauce that clings beautifully to pasta. Here’s a detailed guide on how to prepare this classic dish for six people, ensuring each serving is as delicious as it is authentic.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 pounds (24 oz) pasta (spaghetti or linguine works well)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup pitted black olives, sliced
  • 1/2 cup pitted green olives, sliced
  • 1/4 cup capers, rinsed and drained
  • 8 anchovy fillets, chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Pasta:

  1. Boil Water: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  2. Cook Pasta: Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve about 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta.

2. Prepare the Sauce:

  1. Heat Olive Oil: In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Sauté Garlic and Red Pepper Flakes: Add the minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. Sauté until the garlic is fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add Anchovies: Add the chopped anchovies to the skillet and cook until they dissolve into the oil, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add Tomatoes: Pour in the crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add Olives and Capers: Stir in the sliced black olives, green olives, and capers. Cook for another 5 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

3. Combine Pasta and Sauce:

  1. Toss Pasta with Sauce: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the puttanesca sauce. Toss everything together, adding some of the reserved pasta water to help bind the sauce and pasta. Adjust seasoning if necessary with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

4. Serve:

  1. Plate the Pasta: Serve the Pasta Puttanesca hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley.
  2. Optional: Offer grated Parmesan cheese on the side for those who want it.

Tips:

  • Anchovies: Anchovies are a key ingredient and add a depth of flavor to the sauce. If you’re hesitant, use less or omit, but the traditional recipe includes them.
  • Pasta Water: The reserved pasta water helps to emulsify the sauce and ensure it clings well to the pasta.
  • Olives: Use good quality olives for the best flavor.
