Sliced Flat Iron Steak Appetizer
This teaser is a scrumptious bite of local goodness. Perfect way to set the stage while you're getting the rest of your meal ready.
Ingredients
- Flat iron steak
- Salt, pepper, garlic powder (or your favorite steak rub) (I used Baptism River Barbecue's Two Step Falls Beef Rub on air.)
- 1 tbsp olive oil or tallow
- 1 bag of ruffle cut potato chips
- Coleslaw homemade, store bought, whatever your favorite is!
Instructions
- Season steak generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder or steak rub. Let rest at room temp ~30 minutes.
- Sear or grill over high heat.
- Cook to medium-rare to medium.
- Rest 5–10 minutes before slicing.
- Slice thinly against the grain.
- Top each chip with a teaspoon of coleslaw and top with a strip of flat iron.
Notes
For the coleslaw on Minnesota Live, I mixed a broccoli slaw mix with Northland Vinegars apple cider vinegar, olive oil, dried mustard, brown sugar, and salt. For a creamier slaw, combine Baptism River Barbecue's Baptism River sauce with mayo for a delightful tang.
I used Old Dutch Ruffled potato chips for the segment.
