Steak

Method

Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the Wagyu KC Strip Steak out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear the Steak

    Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and let rest.

Café de Paris Butter

  1. 3

    Make the Butter

    In a bowl, combine softened unsalted butter with shallots, garlic, parsley, chives, tarragon, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  2. 4

    Shape the Butter

    Transfer the butter mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap. Shape it into a log, wrap tightly, and refrigerate until firm.

Potato Croquettes

  1. 5

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a pot of salted boiling water, cook the cubed potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash the potatoes.

  2. 6

    Form the Croquettes

    Mix the mashed potatoes with beaten egg, salt, and pepper. Shape the mixture into small cylinders or patties.

  3. 7

    Coat and Fry

    Dredge each croquette in flour, dip in egg, and then coat with breadcrumbs. Heat oil in a frying pan and fry the croquettes until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes.

Asparagus

  1. 8

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Toss the trimmed asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Ensure they are evenly coated.

  2. 9

    Cook the Asparagus

    Sauté the asparagus in the same skillet used for the steak over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until tender yet crisp. Remove and set aside.
