Tune in for a delicately fragrant and fully delicious way to cook those flat irons, along with the perfect side dish. As you can probably tell, I love pineapple. It obviously has amazing flavor on its own, but is ideal in marinades thanks to its tenderizing properties. Plus, good coconut rice can change your life, and adding pineapple will only make it better.
Ingredients
- 2 ea ButcherBox Flat Iron Steaks
Pineapple Marinade
- ¼ c pineapple juice
- ¼ c olive oil
- 2 Tbsp lime zest
- 1 Tbsp ginger minced
- 1 Tbsp garlic minced
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
Coconut Pineapple Rice
- 1 c jasmine rice
- 1 c coconut milk unsweetened
- 1 c water
- 1 Tbsp ginger minced
- 1 Tbsp garlic minced
- ½ ea pineapple grilled and diced
- 1 ea lime grilled, juiced
- 3 ea scallions grilled and chopped
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp white pepper
Instructions
- Mix all marinade ingredients and marinate steaks for at least 1 hour, up to 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix rice, coconut milk, water, ginger and garlic and cook according to instructions on rice package.
- Preheat grill pan, and add oil. Once oil starts to smoke, sear steaks on both sides for 2 minutes per side and finish in oven for 8 minutes, or until meat thermometer inserted into thickest part reads 120°F. Let steaks rest for at least 8 minutes before slicing against the grain and serving.
- Once rice is done, remove from heat and let rest uncovered for at least 10 minutes. Fluff rice with rice paddle or fork, then quickly stir remaining ingredients into rice. Be careful not to overmix or you might break the rice. Serve alongside sliced steak and enjoy!
