Cuban Steaks with Mojo Onions Recipe
Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 8 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 4 small red chillies, finely chopped
- 1 tspn ground cumin
- 1 tspn dried oregano
- 1 cup fresh orange juice
- ½ cup fresh lime juice
- ¼ cup water
- sea salt & freshly ground pepper
- 3 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
- 4 x 200 gm rump steaks
- 3 onions, thickly sliced
Directions
- Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan and gently sauté the garlic and chillies, being careful not to burn.
- Add the cumin, dried oregano, orange and lime juice, water, a little salt and a decent amount of ground pepper. Stir well and bring to the boil. Then turn down the heat and gently cook until slightly reduced.
- Remove from the heat, stir in the chopped coriander and set aside to completely cool.
- Then pour the marinade over the steaks and onions, toss well and refrigerate for 1-2 hours (overnight even better), tossing now and again.
- When ready, panfry the onions in one layer, brushing with the marinade for the first few minutes. At the same time, cook the steaks on a preheated ridged grill (or BBQ) to the desired degree, also basting with the marinade at the beginning. Rest the steaks for a few minutes, before cutting in half.
- Serve the steaks on a bed of onions.
