Wednesday, July 29,2009 - Rib eye steaks, Indian style!

This recipe is from Gourmet magazine's latest issue. I usually find some good recipes in there, although I am not typically a recipe slave. I shop at several stores, incuding a great local Asian MegaMart called Super H. They have great produce at wonderful prices, so my Wednesday trip yielded the ingredients for not only tonight, but the next three dinners! I will be at one of the local Farmers Markets tomorrow, staffing the Master Gardeners Plant Clinic, so I will stock up there on whatever is fresh and good - probably corn, tomatoes, and beans. Oh what wonderful meals are upcoming!

The menu tonight was:
Grilled Rib Eye with Indian-Spiced Mushrooms
Grilled Herb Potatoes
Sliced Summer Tomatoes

Anyway, here are the recipes:

I did use some of the spiced oil mixture for the mushrooms on the steaks to marinate them a bit before grilling - a departure from the recipe. I also cooked the mushrooms BEFORE the steaks.
I had planned to do it outside on my new gas grill, but it started raining (much needed, so I wasn't sad about that) so I used my Cuisinart Griddler instead. Another shameless plug here - the CG is a GREAT product. You can get it for about $80-$100 and it is well worth it! I use mine for paninis, grilling, griddling and more!

So tomorrow is either chicken burgers with grated apple, onion and whole grain mustard, or Baked Chicken Meatballs with Peperonata.

Happy Cooking and Bon Appetit!
