List of Ingredients
1/2 cup hoisin
1/4 cup tamari
1/4 cup mirin or dry sherry
1/4 cup green onions
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced Hawaiian peppers or chile paste
2 (1-pound) rib-eye steaks
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 Maui onions, peeled and cut into thick slices about 1/4 to 1/2-inch, slices kept together not separated
2 tablespoons Emeril's Original Essence, recipe follows
1 tablespoon crushed Szechwan peppercorns
Recipe
In a bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients, except the onions, Essence, and peppercorns.
Place the steaks in a large sealable bag with the marinade. Seal and refrigerate for at least 12 hours, and up to 36 hours.
Preheat a grill.
Remove the steaks from the marinade and pat dry. Season both sides with 1 tablespoon of the Essence and the peppercorns. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Simmer until thickened and reduced by 1/3 in volume, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat.
Sprinkle the thick onion slices with the remaining 1 tablespoon of Essence.
Grill the steaks until medium-rare, about 6 minutes per side. At the same time, grill the onions (as though grilling a patty, so the rings stay together) until golden and char-marked by the grill, turning once.
Remove the steaks from the grill and top with the grilled onions. Serve with the reduced marinade as sauce.
Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
Yield: about 2/3 cup
