Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pound flank steak
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
For serving
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ½ onion sliced
- ½ red pepper sliced
- 1 tablespoon oil
Instructions
- Place the sous vide immersion circulator in a container of water. Set it to 133 degrees F for medium-rare. Or see the table in the notes for other doneness. Wait for it to reach temperature.
- Combine the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Season the steak liberally with the spice mixture.
- Put the steak in a bag, vacuum seal it, or place it in a heavy-duty plastic bag and remove the air. If you don't have a vacuum sealer use the water displacement method. Seal the bag most of the way and slowly lower it in the water, letting the water pressure push out the air.
- Once the water bath has reached your desired temperature, add the steak.
- Let it cook for at least 1 hour, but no longer than 4 hours.
- When ready to eat, heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add butter to the skillet and cook onions and bell peppers until crisp if you want to cook veggies.
- Remove the veggies from the skillet, raise the heat to high, and add a tablespoon of oil.
- Take the steak out of the bag and pat it dry with a paper towel.
- Add it to the skillet and sear it for 1-2 minutes on each side.
- Slice your steak across the grain and serve.
Notes
- Change the seasoning and herbs if you have a favorite spice for steaks.
- If your steak is frozen, sous vide it for 2 – 5 hours.
- Don't leave the steaks in the sous vide water bath for more than 4 hours of cooking time, or the texture of the meat will not be as good.
