3-INGREDIENT CHIPOTLE-LIME GRILLED STEAK

Steps:

• 1. Blend chile, adobo sauce, 1 tsp. lime zest, lime juice, oil, 1 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1 tsp. pepper in a blender until smooth. Place steak in a large resealable plastic bag, pour marinade over, and toss to coat. Marinate, tossing occasionally, at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or chill overnight. 2. If chilled, let steak sit at room temperature 30 minutes. Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade; discard marinade. Grill steak until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of steak registers 120-125°F for medium-rare, 2-3 minutes per side for skirt; 3-4 minutes per side for flank. Let rest 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain (to make slicing easier for skirt steak, cut into 5-6" segments, then slice against the grain). 3. Transfer to a platter and top with remaining 1/2 tsp. lime zest; season with salt and pepper. Serve with lime wedges alongside.

CHIPOTLE LIME FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Marinade flank steak for 4 hours or overnight.
• Remove from marinade and pat dry.
• Grill on BBQ until just medium rare.
• Grill time will depend on the size of flank steak (s) (DO NOT OVERCOOK THE FLANK STEAK).
• Cover loosely with aluminum foil for 7-10 minutes.
• Slice the meat against the grain in about 1/4 inch thick slices or as thin as you can reasonably get.
• (It is VERY important to slice the meat against the grain or it will be tough.) At last minute pour some of the dipping sauce over the cut up flank steak and serve.
• Put the left over dipping sauce on the table for everyone to enjoy.
• Goes great with grilled corn on the cob and white sticky rice.

GRILLED CHILI STEAK WITH GARLIC-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Mix chili powder, cumin, chipotle powder, pepper, and cayenne for rub together in a small bowl.
• Place steaks on a large plate. Sprinkle kosher salt generously on both sides, then sprinkle rub over the salt.
• Twist 3 pieces of foil into 1/2-inch diameter rolls and place them under the steaks to act as a rack and lift the steaks up from the plate. Pop steaks into the fridge and leave uncovered to dry-brine for 3 to 12 hours.
• Meanwhile, place garlic and salt for garlic-lime butter in a mortar. Grind to a paste with a pestle. Add butter and lime zest and stir with a small spoon to combine. Set aside.
• Preheat a charcoal grill for high heat. Remove steaks from the refrigerator and brush with vegetable oil on both sides.
• Place steaks on the preheated grill and cook until firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center and meat gently springs back to the touch, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium-rare.
• Remove from the grill and top with garlic-lime butter.

GIANT CHIPOTLE-RUBBED STEAKS WITH CILANTRO-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill; if using a gas grill, turn both burners to high.
• Put all spice paste ingredients in a food processor and purée. Rub steaks all over with paste (it will be rather thick) and set aside.
• Combine ingredients for cilantro-lime butter in a small bowl and mash with a spoon until well mixed and an even consistency.
• When all coals are covered with gray ash and fire is medium hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for 3 to 4 seconds), put steaks on grill directly over coals and cook until well seared, about 7 minutes. Turn and cook another 7 to 10 minutes for medium rare. Remove from heat, top each steak with a couple tablespoons of butter, and serve.

Steps:

• For chimichurri, place the first 5 ingredients in a food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Add oil, vinegar, lime zest, lime juice, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; process until blended. Transfer to a bowl; refrigerate, covered, until serving., Sprinkle steaks with the remaining salt and pepper. Grill, covered, over medium heat 5-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with chimichurri.

GRILLED MARINATED FLANK STEAK WITH LIME-CHIPOTLE SAUCE

Steps:

• To make meat: Carefully trim steak of any fat.
• Mix together chipotle, garlic, cilantro, oil, wine and soy sauce; pour over steak. Cover and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours or overnight, turning occasionally. I always marinate overnight for the best flavor. To make sauce: In food processor, briefly blend honey, chipotle, vinegar, mustard, lime juice, garlic, cumin, allspice, cilantro and salt. Set aside. Correct seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Prepare grill and hot coals according to manufacturer's instructions. Remove steak from marinade and discard marinade. Pat steak dry and grill over hot coals to desired doneness, approximately 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let steak rest 3 minutes before slicing.
• To serve, slice meat thinly across grain on angle and arrange on warm plates with grilled sweet onions and peppers. Drizzle sauce over or serve on side.
• NOTES : This is a great outdoor dish because it doesn't involve any stove-top or oven cooking. Any leftover meat and sauce can be turned into a filling for tacos or burritos.
