Coffee Bean & Peppercorn Steak
A bold combination of coffee beans and peppercorns works well on other rich meats.
1 small clove garlic
¼ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1 tablespoon strong freshly brewed coffee
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon whole coffee beans, (not flavored beans)
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
½ teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces sirloin steak, about 1-inch thick, trimmed of fat
Preheat grill to high.
Smash and peel garlic clove, sprinkle with ⅛ teaspoon salt and mash into a paste with a spoon or the side of a chef’s knife. Transfer to a small bowl and whisk in coffee and vinegar. Season with pepper.
Place coffee beans and peppercorns on a cutting board; coarsely crush with the bottom of a heavy pan. Mix the crushed coffee beans and peppercorns together. Rub steaks with oil, sprinkle with the remaining ⅛ teaspoon salt and coat with the coffee-peppercorn mixture, pressing it into the meat. Grill 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare.
Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Thinly slice across the grain. Serve with the vinaigrette.
