Creole Steaks...

[Chipchopper]

I bought a couple of these highly spiced/marinated sirloin steaks recently and found they they were much hotter than expected.

Other than washing or scraping the marinade off, is there any way I can wimpify the steaks down to a more agreeable level, so it don't blow the roof of my skull off ?.

I've had plenty of Cajun food before, but it don't taste as hot as the Creole style cuisine, is this the general rule ?

Simply serve it with a suitable cucumber-based dish to cool it down. Just because raita is an Asian dish, it doesn't mean that you can't accompany creole food with it!

However if you'd prefer to try something more authentically creole, this might work:

Cook them for maybe 20 minutes over low heat in a cup or so of any reasonably good red wine… I'd use a Chianti...et voila!
