Name: Grilled Porterhouse Steak with Horseradish Cream
Cook time: 25 min
Total time: 35 min
Yield: Makes 6 servings
Ingredients: 2 (1 1/4-inch-thick) porterhouse steaks (4 pounds total); 1 cup sour cream; 1/4 cup undrained horseradish (from a new jar); 4 scallions, chopped; 1 1/2 teaspoons salt; 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper; an instant-read thermometer

A simple seasoning of salt and pepper leaves this steak ready for an assertive horseradish sauce. It's a great, simple choice for a special occasion.

Cooks' note:

If you aren't able to grill outdoors, steaks can be seared in a hot lightly oiled well-seasoned large (2-burner) ridged grill pan over moderately high heat, turning over once, until grill marks form, 4 to 6 minutes total. Reduce heat to moderately low, then cover with 2 large overturned metal bowls and cook, turning over once, about 12 minutes total.
