Questions about Top loin steak
What cut is top loin steak?
It is a boneless steak cut from the short loin, often sold as strip steak or New York strip. It has a firm, fine-grained texture and a strip of fat along one edge.
How do you pan-fry top loin steak?
Pat it dry, season it, then sear in a very hot, lightly oiled pan for about 2–3 minutes per side for a 2.5 cm steak. For medium-rare, aim for 52–54 °C in the centre, then rest it for 5–10 minutes; the temperature will rise as it rests.
How do you cook top loin steak on a barbecue?
Set the barbecue up for high, direct heat and cook a 2.5 cm steak for roughly 2–3 minutes per side, turning once. Check the centre with a thermometer and rest the steak for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
Should you marinate top loin steak?
It is already a tender cut, so a marinade is mainly for flavour rather than tenderising. A short stint of 30 minutes to 2 hours with oil, garlic and herbs works well; wipe off excess marinade before searing so the steak browns instead of steams.
How should you store top loin steak?
Keep raw steak covered in the fridge at 4 °C or colder and use it within 3–5 days of purchase. Freeze it in an airtight, well-wrapped package; thaw it in the fridge rather than on the worktop.
What goes well with top loin steak?
Serve it with chips, peppercorn sauce and a green salad for a steak-frites-style meal, or pair it with roasted potatoes and grilled vegetables. Slice leftovers thinly across the grain for sandwiches or a steak salad.
Is top loin steak a source of zinc?
Yes. A 113 g portion provides 4.6 mg of zinc.
