4 servings
40 minutes total
  • Prepare steaks and begin to marinate (5 minutes)
  • Prepare rice through step 2 (10 minutes)
  • Grill steaks and complete rice; serve (25 minutes)

Sizzling Steaks

Ingredients

  • ½ cup red wine vinaigrette
  • 1 packet brown gravy mix (0.75–1 oz)
  • Large zip-top bag
  • 1 ½ lb boneless New York strip steaks
  • 1 teaspoon barbecue-style seasoning
  • Baked potatoes (optional, for serving)

Steps

    1. Preheat grill (or grill pan) on medium-high. Place vinaigrette and dry gravy mix in bag; shake to combine. Cut steaks into 4 portions and add to bag (wash hands); seal bag and knead gently to coat steaks. Let stand 20 minutes (or chill overnight) to marinate.
    2. Remove steaks from bag (discard marinade). Coat steaks with seasoning.
    3. Place steaks on grill and close lid (or cover loosely with foil); grill 4–5 minutes on each side until steaks are 125°F (for medium rare; warm red center), 130°F (for medium; warm pink center), or up to 170°F (for well done). Transfer steaks to cutting board and let stand 5–10 minutes before slicing; temperature will rise 5–10°F during this time. Serve with baked potatoes, if using.

Creamy Rice Primavera

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 4 oz sliced fresh baby portabella mushrooms
  • 8 oz tomato trinity mix (diced fresh tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions)
  • 1 (8.8 oz) pouch cooked white rice
  • ½ cup Alfredo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil

Steps

    1. Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Place butter in pan, then add garlic and mushrooms; cook and stir 3–4 minutes until garlic is golden and mushrooms have reduced. Stir in tomato trinity mix; cook and stir 4–5 minutes until tender.
    2. Stir in rice, Alfredo sauce, and cheese; cover and reduce heat to low. Cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until bubbly and steaming. Chop basil finely, stir into pan, and serve.

Serving Suggestions

  • Complete your meal with fresh salad blend, French bread, and Key lime pie for dessert.
  • Slice the cooked steaks thinly and serve over fresh salad greens for a tasty, hearty salad.
