Ingredients

3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon prepared horseradish, drained

3 mint leaves, finely chopped

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the steaks

2 tablespoons coarsely ground black pepper

1/2 teaspoon ancho chili powder or red pepper flakes

1 teaspoon kosher salt

2 New York strip steaks, 10 ounces each

2 tablespoons canola oil

Preparation

1. To make the glaze, whisk together mustard, honey, horseradish and mint in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside. 2. Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, combine black pepper, red pepper flakes and salt. Rub one side of each steak with the mixture. 3. Place a medium ovenproof sauté pan over high heat, and heat oil until smoking. Place steaks in pan, rub-side down, and sear for 35 to 40 seconds. Turn steaks over, salt, and place pan in oven until steaks are medium rare, 8 to 10 minutes, brushing with glaze during last 2 minutes. Remove steaks from oven, and brush again with glaze. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
