Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Ribeye steak
- 2 tablespoons Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the chipotle peppers, olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
Place the ribeye steaks in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for more intense flavor.
Preheat a grill or a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Remove the steaks from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off.
Place the steaks on the hot grill or skillet. Cook the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach the desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches at least 130°F for medium-rare.
Remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows for the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy steak.
Serve the Keto Chipotle Steak with your choice of keto-friendly sides, such as grilled vegetables or a fresh green salad.
