Ingredients
- 2 boneless rib-eye steaks, about 1 pound each and 1 1/2-inches thick
- Salt and pepper
- 4 tablespoons butter, divided
- 3 large or 4 medium onions, halved and sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 teaspoons pimentón (smoked sweet paprika)
- 1 large fresh bay leaf
- 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons cider or wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown or Dijon mustard
- 1 cup chicken stock, divided
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 4 large or 6 medium Russet potatoes, about 2 1/4 pounds, peeled and cut into large dice
- 8 ounces Manchego cheese, shredded
- Olive oil, for drizzling
- 1 pound green beans
- 2 large shallots, thinly sliced
- 4 peppadew peppers, chopped or 1 4-ounce jar pimientos, drained
Preparation
Bring steaks to room temperature and season meat liberally with Kosher salt and coarse black pepper. Preheat a large, cast-iron skillet or griddle to medium-high.
Preheat oven to 450°F.
Place potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, salt the potatoes and cook to tender; drain and put back in hot pot. Add remaining 1/2 cup chicken stock, cheese and remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Mash to desired consistency and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover to keep warm.
Place the beans and shallots on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper then sprinkle the red peppadews or pimientos over the beans. Roast the green beans to tender-crisp and brown at edges, 15 minutes.
Drizzle steaks with a little olive oil then cook in the hot pan for 8-10 minutes for medium-rare. Cool the steaks then slice 1/4-inch thick against the grain.
Fan the sliced steak on plates and top with some barbecued onions. Serve mashed potatoes and green beans alongside.
