Grilled Kansas City Strip Steak
with Tarragon Butter
Ingredients
For the Tarragon Butter
„ 1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter at room
temperature
„ 1/4 cup fresh tarragon leaves, finely chopped
For the Steaks
„ 4 beef strip steaks
„ 4 tablespoons of tarragon butter
„ Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper
For the Corn Salad with Grape Tomatoes and Basil
„ 4 ears of corn, kernels removed
„ 2 tablespoons light cream (or half and half)
„ 1 pint fresh grape tomatoes, sliced in half
Directions
For the tarragon butter:
Place the softened butter, tarragon, lemon zest and pepper in a small bowl. Thoroughly mix until it is light
and fluffy.
After creaming the butter, place it on a sheet of plastic wrap and roll it up into a round cylinder, about 5 inches
long. Twist ends to seal. Refrigerate until firm.
Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes prior to grilling the meat.
For the steaks:
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 20 minutes prior to grilling. Pat the steaks dry with a paper
towel. Season both sides of the steak with the sea salt and pepper.
Turn the grill to HIGH and wait until the preheating phase is complete, the READY LED will turn on. Place the
steaks on the cooking plates.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, depending on the thickness of the steaks and the temperature of the grill. About
halfway through cooking the first side, rotate the steaks 45 to 60 degrees to give them the classic cross-
hatched grill marks.
Use a pair of tongs to flip the steaks, and cook them for another 3-4 minutes. You can test for doneness by
pressing the center of the steaks with your thumb. For medium rare, the steak should spring back without
feeling overly firm.
Remove the steaks from the grill, cover them with foil and let them rest, in a warm place, for five minutes. Top
each steak with one tablespoon of tarragon butter.
For the salad:
Place the corn kernels in a microwave safe dish. Add the cream, cover with plastic wrap and microwave
on high for 2 minutes. Remove the plastic wrap, add the grape tomatoes and season to taste with salt and
pepper. Garnish with fresh sliced basil leaves.
Serve with the grilled strip steaks.
This simple and delicious steak reaches another level of flavor when topped with a round of tarragon flavored
butter.
