Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons garlic infused olive oil, divided
  • 2 1/2 pounds trimmed hanger steaks, or approximately 4 (8-ounce) pieces
  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup pomegranate juice
  • 1 cup cherry preserves

Method

  • Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium.
  • Drizzle 2 tablespoons of oil over steaks and season all sides with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Put on a hot grill pan or outdoor grill.
  • Allow the meat to cook for about 3 minutes on the first side without moving.
  • Turn, and cook until preferred doneness is reached, another 5 minutes (just a bit more for larger cuts).
  • Remove the steaks from the grill to a cutting board and allow to rest 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce.
  • In a medium saucepan over high heat, add the shallots and remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  • Season with salt and pepper and cook until golden.
  • Deglaze the pan with pomegranate juice, scraping up the brown bits, then stir in the cherry preserves.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thick.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
  • Thinly slice the steak against the grain and arrange on serving plates.
  • Serve with the cherry sauce.
