Ingredients
  • Dry rub for the steak:
  • 1/2 Tablespoons black peppercorns
  • 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
  • 1 teaspoon fennel seed
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 Pound New York strip steak thick cut
  • 1-1/2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound thick asparagus trimmed
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • For the vinaigrette
  • 3 Tablespoons chicken broth
  • 2-1/2 Tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 Tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • For the salad
  • 4 cups watercress or arugula
  • 1 large mango peeled and slivered into thin wedges, or 2 large navel oranges, peeled and sliced into thick rounds
  • 1/2 small red onion
  • Daikon or radish sprouts for garnish or pea tendrils
Instructions
  1. Prepare the steak and asparagus
  2. Put the peppercorns, coriander, fennel, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a spice grinder and grind to a fine powder. Coat the steak with 1/2 Tbs. of the olive oil and then the peppercorn mixture. Set aside for at least 30 minutes and up to 1-1/2 hours.
  3. Toss the asparagus with the remaining 1 Tbs. of olive oil and season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  4. Make the vinaigrette
  5. In a blender, combine all of the ingredients and pulse 2 or 3 times to mix, adding more broth if necessary to achieve a silky consistency.
  6. Grill the steak and asparagus
  7. Prepare a high gas or charcoal grill fire. Grill the steak until nice grill marks form, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook the steak on the second side until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the steak reads 125°F for rare, about 4 minutes. Remove the steak from the grill and put on a cutting board. Tent with foil to keep warm. Let the meat rest while you grill the asparagus.
  8. Spread out the asparagus on the grill and cook, turning a couple of times, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.
  9. Assemble the salad
  10. Arrange the asparagus, cress, and mango on 4 plates or a platter. Thinly slice the steak across the grain and arrange over the salad. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and garnish with the red onion and daikon sprouts (if using).

    I should know to avoid reading your blog when I’m hungry, but I have NO willpower when it comes to checking out your new posts. This recipe hooked me as soon as I read the dry rub ingredients. Do you have a spice grinder? I keep thinking I’m going to buy a coffee grinder just for spices. That combo sounds so darned good! And that vinaigrette is really unusual. I’m printing this to put in the “to try” pile. Thanks!

      I have a coffee grinder that someone gave me as a gift 20 years ago. It’s my spice grinder. L-o-v-e love how it works. The vinaigrette is really good. And by the way, I’ve used that darn Comal every day since I’ve purchased it. Thanks for the recommendation. It’s fabulous.

    Exactly my kind of meal too but I love the vinaigrette; it’s so different from my norm that I’m excited to try it. Since first grilling asparagus a couple of years ago Lea Ann, I simply can’t do it any other way. Easy, fast and the most delicious result ever, isn’t it?

      I agree Barbara. Grilling asparagus is my favorite site dish. This vinaigrette is really good, compliments the steak beautifully

    Wow Lea Ann. Another great salad. You know I love the citrus/mango in this. (might use both) Thanks for a new vinaigrette recipe. I’ve never thought of using hoisin in a dressing. I’ll definitely try it.

      Well, I’ve got a bottle on the fridge door that I used once for a recipe which I was underwhelmed. Glad to find a use for it, until I find another recipe for stir fry that I like.
