Recipe - Michigan Beef Steak With Chili-Corn Sauce

Chili Corn Sauce *
2 tablespoon Oil, vegetable (or more)
Salt
6 Steaks, sirloin OR **
6 Steaks, ribeye **
5 tablespoon Butter, unsalted
2 tablespoon Water
36 Scallions (white only)
trimmed to 2 1/2"

* Recipe for CHILI CORN SAUCE follows in this packet.

** Steaks should be deboned and thoroughly trimmed (about One half pound
each after trimming and deboning)

In a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil until
hot but not smoking. Working in batches if necessary, salt your
steaks lightly and sear them on both sides over high heat, about 1
minute per side.

Using tongs to hold the steaks, sear their edges.

Lower the heat slightly and continue to cook steaks, turning them
once, until rare (4 One half to 5 minutes total.)

Meanwhile, in a separate skillet, heat the butter and water,
shaking the pan until they are blended.

Add scallions and cook over high heat, shaking the skillet
constantly, until crisptender (about 2 minutes.)

To Serve:
=========

Place a steak in the center of each heated serving plate. Warm
the chili corn sauce and adjust the seasoning to taste. Spoon some of
the sauce around each steak.

Place 3 scallions on each side of each steak like spokes from the
hub of a wheel (the steak is the hub.) Serve Immediately.
