Equipment
- Skillet
- Chef's Knife
- Mixing Bowl
- Frying Pan
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Bavette steak
- 1 cup orange juice
- 3-4 cloves garlic minced
- ½ cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ – 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Set out a large zip bag, or a baking dish for a marinade. Combine the orange juice, minced garlic, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper in the bag or dish. Mix well.
- Place the Bavette steak in the bag and zip tightly. Refrigerate for at least one hour but up to 24 hours.
- When ready to cook, remove the Bavette steak from the marinade and allow it to dry for at least 30 minutes.
- Set an extra-large cast-iron skillet (or cast iron griddle) over high heat.
- Once the pan is hot, add the butter and olive oil to the skillet. Once melted, sear the Bavette steak for 4 to 5 minutes per side, making sure the surface of the steak is in full contact with the pan for the best caramelization.
- Allow the steak to rest for 3 to 5 minutes before cutting and serving. When ready to slice, turn the steak so that each slice is cut against the grain. Slice and serve with your favorite steak sauce.
Notes
- Storage: Cooked steak will keep well for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. Let the meat cool completely before transferring to an airtight container and placing in the fridge.
