Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Ribeye steak
- 3 tablespoons Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 3 teaspoons Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
In a blender or food processor, combine chipotle peppers, olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth to create the marinade.
Place the ribeye steaks in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are well coated on all sides.
Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to fully infuse into the meat.
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before grilling to bring them to room temperature.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 450°F (232°C).
Once heated, place the steaks on the grill. Cook the steaks for about 6-8 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time to your preferred level of doneness.
Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute within the meat.
Slice the steak against the grain and serve, garnished with freshly chopped cilantro.
