Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 steaks (6 oz each) Beef fillet
- 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Tahini
- 1.5 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Remove the beef fillets from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
In a small bowl, mix together the ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground coriander, garlic powder, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper to create the spice rub.
Pat the beef fillets dry with paper towels and rub the spice mixture evenly onto all sides of each steak. Drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil over the steaks, gently rubbing it in to coat them evenly. Set aside for 10 minutes to marinate.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, lightly oil the pan and sear the beef fillets for 3-4 minutes per side, depending on your desired level of doneness (medium-rare is recommended). Remove the steaks from the pan, tent them loosely with foil, and let them rest for 5 minutes.
While the beef is resting, prepare the creamy sesame dressing. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, tahini, rice vinegar, honey, and toasted sesame seeds until smooth and creamy.
Serve the beef fillets on individual plates, drizzled with the creamy sesame dressing. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, and enjoy your flavorful creation!
