Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 teaspoons finely ground coffee
1 teaspoon chipotle chile powder
3 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar, divided
1 teaspoon ground coriander, divided
2 (8-10-ounce) New York strip steaks
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for brushing
2 ears of corn, husked
1 pint cherry tomatoes
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
2 heads of romaine hearts, torn (about 8 cups)
3/4 cup Pickled Onions
1/2 cup crumbled Cotija or feta cheese (about 2.5 ounces)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Combine coffee, chile powder, 2 tsp. salt, 1 tsp. brown sugar, and 1/2 tsp. coriander in a wide shallow bowl. Coat steaks evenly with rub. Let rest at room temperature 1-2 hours.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat or heat grill pan over medium-high; oil grate or pan. Grill steaks, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 120°F, 8-10 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest at least 15 minutes before thinly slicing.
  • Meanwhile, lightly brush corn and tomatoes with oil. Grill, turning often, until tender and charred in spots, 5-10 minutes for tomatoes and 10-15 minutes for corn. Let cool slightly. Transfer tomatoes to a large bowl. Cut kernels from cobs and transfer to bowl with tomatoes.
  • Whisk lime juice and remaining 3 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. brown sugar, and 1/2 tsp. coriander in a small bowl. Pour over tomatoes and corn. Add romaine, pickled onions, cheese, and 1/2 cup cilantro and toss to combine. Top with sliced steak and more cilantro.

Time 15m

Yield 3-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup ketchup
1 dill pickle, finely chopped
1 small red onion, very thinly sliced
1 -2 chipotle pepper, in adobo sauce diced seeds removed if you want to bring down the heat
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon cilantro
3 cups cooked grilled steak, sliced very very thinly
salt & pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Mix everything together.
  • If Steak was well seasoned before grilling omit the salt & pepper.
  • Serve on a nice hearty toasted roll, or on a bed of greens and avocado, wrap in a tortilla.

Tips

  • Choose the right steak: Look for a steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is tender and juicy.
  • Season the steak generously: Season the steak with a flavorful rub or marinade before cooking. This will help to develop a delicious crust and add flavor to the steak.
  • Cook the steak to your desired doneness: Cook the steak over medium-high heat until it reaches your desired doneness. For a medium-rare steak, cook for about 4 minutes per side. For a medium steak, cook for about 5 minutes per side. For a medium-well steak, cook for about 6 minutes per side.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and juicy steak.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results. Fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices will make a big difference in the flavor of the salad.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A light dressing is all that's needed to enhance the flavors of the steak and vegetables. Overdressing the salad will only weigh it down and make it less enjoyable.

Conclusion

This chipotle steak salad is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. The steak is tender and juicy, the vegetables are fresh and crisp, and the chipotle dressing adds a flavorful kick. This salad is sure to become a favorite in your home.
