Ingredients
1 tablespoon salted butter, plus 1 stick slightly softened
1 shallot, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 pound gorgonzola cheese,crumbled
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds flank steak
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup paprika
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
2 pounds large asparagus, trimmed
Directions
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add
the shallot and cook until tender, about 1 minute. Add the heavy cream
and simmer until reduced by half. Whisk in the gorgonzola until it
melts. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Brush the steak lightly with 1
tablespoon olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Grill
the steak, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare, turning once. Remove
from the heat and cover with foil. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes
before slicing.
Meanwhile, combine the sugar, paprika and onion powder in a small
bowl. Reserve 4 teaspoons and store the rest in an airtight container.
(Seasoning will keep in the pantry for up to 6 months.) Mix the stick of
softened butter with 3 teaspoons of the seasoning in a small bowl;
cover and refrigerate.
Toss the asparagus with the remaining 1 teaspoon barbecue seasoning
mix and 1 tablespoon olive oil; add salt and pepper to taste. Cook the
asparagus in a grill pan over medium heat until tender, turning once,
about 6 minutes total. Reserve 4 stalks for the sushi.
Reserve a quarter of the steak for the sushi; cut the rest into
-inch-thick slices. Top with the gorgonzola cream sauce, reserving about
1/2 cup for sushi, and serve with the asparagus and some barbecue
butter.
