Description
Garlic is the star of this recipe for grilled New York strip steaks topped with olive oil-roasted garlic confit. Perfect for a special occasion dinner.
Ingredients
•
8 cloves garlic, minced
•
1 tablespoon olive oil
•
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper
•
2 (12 ounce) New York strip steaks
•
12 cloves garlic, peeled
•
1 cup olive oil for frying
•
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Directions
1
Whisk together garlic, 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until marinade is well combined; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add steaks, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
2
Combine 12 garlic cloves and 1 cup olive oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is golden and tender, about 30 minutes. Set aside.
3
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
4
Remove steaks from the bag, wiping off excess marinade with paper towels. Discard marinade. Generously season steaks with salt and black pepper.
5
Cook steaks on the preheated grill until slightly firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove steaks to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes.
6
Drizzle balsamic vinegar over steaks, then spoon a few cloves of oil-roasted garlic on top.
