Grilled Steak with Blue Cheese Potatoes

I made this this weekend with Elk Steak. And they were really yummy!! I'm not even that much of a blue cheese fan, but I loved it. I did end up broiling the potatoes instead of grilling them.


Grilled Steak with Blue Cheese Potatoes

by: Martha Stewart

Serves 4

* 3 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped

* 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh rosemary, plus sprigs for garnish

* 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

* 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing

* Freshly ground pepper

* 1 3/4 pounds skirt steak

* 1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes

* Coarse salt

* 3 ounces blue cheese, crumbled

Directions

1. Preheat grill to high. Stir garlic, rosemary, Worcestershire sauce, and oil in a nonreactive dish; season with pepper. Place steak in dish, cutting to fit if necessary; coat both sides with marinade. Marinate, turning once, 15 minutes, or up to overnight in the refrigerator.

2. Cover potatoes with cold water in a medium saucepan; add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer until just tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; let cool slightly. Slice potatoes in half, and brush lightly with oil; season with salt and pepper.

3. Grill steak, turning once, to desired doneness, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Set aside. Meanwhile, grill potatoes, turning once, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Immediately sprinkle with cheese. Thinly slice steak against grain. Divide steak and potatoes among 4 plates. Serve, garnished with rosemary sprigs.
