Double Char Steak (Serves 4)

Course Main Course
Keyword bourbon, garlic, lemon zest, scallions, sesame oil, soy sauce, steak

Ingredients

  • 4 NY strip steaks or 4 sections of skirt steak each 6 to 8 oz.
  • 2 tbsps. Minced chives or scallion greens
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ cup Bib & Tucker Double Char Bourbon
  • ½ cup Soy sauce
  • ½ cup Sesame oil or extra virgin olive oil plus oil for the grill grate
  • 2 cloves Garlic crushed with the side of knife
  • 2 tsps. Lemon zest finely grated

Instructions

  • Arrange the steaks in a baking dish. Make the marinade: Combine the bourbon, soy sauce, olive oil, lemon zest and garlic in a mixing bowl and whisk to mix. Pour this mixture over the steaks, cover and marinate for 1 to 2 hours in the refrigerator, turning the meat a few times so it marinates evenly.
  • Set up your grill for direct grilling and heat to high. Brush the grill grate clean and oil it well.
  • Drain the steaks, discarding the marinade. Arrange the steaks on the grill grate and cook to taste, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare strip steaks (a little longer for medium); 2 to 3 minutes per side for skirt steaks. Transfer the steaks to a platter and top with chives and plenty of black pepper.
