Zue's Red wine vinegar Steak & Pan Seared Scallops

Steak:

• Flank or Roast cut - score lightly
• Pat in salt and pepper
• Marinate with Red wine vinegar & Red wine Sherry for 1 hr
• Heat oil, drain (reserve the marinate) and sear steaks on both sides, cut into strips

Red wine Gravy:

Scallops

• Large sea scallops
• Pat dry
• Sprinkle salt and pepper
• Heat oil and butter on Medium-high heat
• Sear one side until brown, turn over to complete the other side (avoid moving and flipping), cook time depends on the size. Mine are huge and took about 5 minutes. As long as you use med-high head and cook both sides until a good brown color should be just right.

I scored this steak intentionally to stuff the garlic and let the inside and out soak through with the red wine vinegar and sherry. (Learned it from watching The Cooking Channel). I used roast cut so it's a lower grade which I don't mind to let the garlic and wine flavor to over power a bit. However, with higher grades such as filet, prime, etc, I want as raw as possible so will NEVER score it and use minimum spices.

Like B-jai said, different mouth tastes.
I often experiment and mix things around to find something my hubby really enjoy. Of course I screwed up big time and made the grossest things ever!

secret: my first time cooking when i was 11, I added cheese slices to my stir fried romain lettuce (trying to be creative) and it was the most disgusting food ever! I made my first cheese cake (following instructions from the cream cheese package) when I was 14 and NO one in my family would eat it! ..........><........

Tobiko, try marinating only for 1 hr max. Also add olive oil in marinate. Don't score too deep wor!
