Bloody Mary Steaks with Green Olive Butter

We love spicy foods and never tire of this quick supper. Keep the grill hot and it's almost foolproof! This dish comes together in the time it takes to toss a salad, pour the wine and ring the dinner bell. Roughly torn pieces of rustic country style bread heated on the grill make a nice accompaniment.

Ingredients

• 2 fluid ounces vodka
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 teaspoons chopped garlic
• 2 teaspoons celery seed
• 4 (6 ounce) boneless beef sirloin steaks, room temperature
• 4 teaspoons cracked black pepper
• 1 ½ cups extra spicy Bloody Mary mix
• 1 tablespoon orange juice concentrate
• 16 each pitted green olives
• 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat a grill to medium heat.

Step 2

Brush steaks on both sides with olive oil, then sprinkle with a mix of cracked pepper and celery seed. Cook steaks to desired doneness on the preheated grill. When done, allow steaks to rest on a plate while continuing with the recipe.

Step 3

Bring the Bloody Mary mix, orange juice concentrate, and vodka to a boil over high heat; then reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 5 minutes. While sauce is cooking, puree the olives, butter, and garlic in a small food processor until almost smooth.

Step 4

To serve, pour a pool of the sauce in the center of each plate. Slice each steak into 4 or 5 slices, and fan out over the sauce. Add a dollop of olive butter, and spoon a little more sauce overtop.
