Recipe Instructions

* Recipe for CHILI CORN SAUCE follows in this packet.

** Steaks should be deboned and thoroughly trimmed (about 1/2 pound each after trimming and deboning)

In a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil until hot but not smoking. Working in batches if necessary, salt your steaks lightly and sear them on both sides over high heat, about 1 minute per side.

Using tongs to hold the steaks, sear their edges.

Lower the heat slightly and continue to cook steaks, turning them once, until rare (4 1/2 to 5 minutes total.) Meanwhile, in a separate skillet, heat the butter and water, shaking the pan until they are blended.

Add scallions and cook over high heat, shaking the skillet constantly, until crisp-tender (about 2 minutes.)

To Serve: Place a steak in the center of each heated serving plate. Warm the chili corn sauce and adjust the seasoning to taste. Spoon some of the sauce around each steak.

Place 3 scallions on each side of each steak like spokes from the hub of a wheel (the steak is the hub.) Serve Immediately.
