Prime New York Steak Dinner done right

Cast Iron Seared Prime New York Steak

Friday night steak dinners are always enjoyable if you can produce delicious food without slaving over the stove all day; This meal can be completed in about thirty minutes. First we started off with a kale salad then we had cast iron seared prime new York steak.  Kale salad was made from dinosaur kale, parm chips, cherry tomatoes, and lemon vinaigrette. This salad is easy to make, balanced, extremely healthy, and a fresh change.  The parm chips are key to help give  a subtle nuttiness and saltiness to balance out some of the bitterness from the kale salad.

Instructions -
Kale Salad

Derib one bunch of kale leaves from the stems then julienne the leaves.  Save the stems for stir fry later on.
Parm chips - grab three finger pinch of shaved parm and put onto foil.  Repeat 8 times.  Bake at 375 for 5 minutes or until crispy but not burned. Cut cherry tomatoes in half. Emulsify 1/2 a lemon with a 1/4 cup of good evoo, salt and pepper to taste, and 1 minced garlic Clove. Toss and serve!  The kale will hold up so you can toss ahead of time and it will still taste delicious.
