The Kitchen is back for its ninth season, and this episode is all about Steakhouse Favorites. Hosts Sunny Anderson, Katie Lee, Jeff Mauro, and Geoffrey Zakarian are joined by guest chef Alex Guarnaschelli to share their tips, tricks, and recipes for grilling up the perfect steak and creating mouthwatering side dishes.
The episode begins with Sunny showing viewers how to make a classic steakhouse cocktail, the Old Fashioned, featuring a homemade cherry syrup. She then moves on to the main event, demonstrating how to prepare a perfectly grilled ribeye steak with a garlic-herb butter.
Next up is Jeff, who is putting a spin on a classic steakhouse favorite with his recipe for Italian-style beef carpaccio. Using thinly sliced raw beef, he adds arugula, Parmesan cheese, and a lemon dressing for a fresh and flavorful dish.
Guest chef Alex Guarnaschelli is up next, sharing her recipe for a classic steakhouse side dish: creamed spinach. She adds her own twist by using kale in addition to spinach, creating a healthier version of the indulgent dish.
Katie Lee is taking us down south with her recipe for pecan-crusted steak. Using ground pecans as a coating, she creates a crunchy and flavorful crust for the steak. She pairs the steak with roasted garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans for a full meal.
Geoffrey Zakarian is getting creative with his steakhouse-inspired dish, creating a grilled skirt steak with a chimichurri sauce and roasted radicchio. The tangy and herbaceous sauce pairs perfectly with the smoky grilled steak, while the roasted radicchio adds a bitter and crunchy element to the dish.
Throughout the episode, the hosts also share their tips for grilling the perfect steak, including how to properly season the meat, how to tell when it's cooked to your desired temperature, and how to let it rest before serving.
As always, the episode ends with a round of The Kitchen Helpline, where the hosts answer viewer questions and offer guidance on cooking conundrums. This episode focuses on all things steakhouse, with tips on creating the perfect steakhouse-style dinner party menu and how to elevate your steak game with fun and flavorful recipes.
