Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 oz dried guajillo chiles guajillo chiles
4 cups boiling-hot water
1 (12-oz) jar roasted red peppers, drained, seeded, and coarsely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted and ground in an electric coffee/spice grinder
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano or 3/4 teaspoon dried, crumbled
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cider vinegar, or to taste
6 (3/4-inch-thick) boneless rib-eye steaks (7 to 8 oz each)
Accompaniment: pickled red onions with cilantro

Steps:

  • Make sauce:
  • Rinse chiles and remove stems, then split open and discard seeds and ribs. Heat a dry well-seasoned cast-iron skillet or heavy skillet over moderate heat, then toast chiles in batches, turning them, about 30 seconds total. Transfer chiles to a heatproof bowl and pour boiling water over them. Cover bowl and soak chiles, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 20 minutes.
  • Reserve 2 cups soaking liquid, then drain chiles in a colander. Purée chiles, reserved soaking liquid, and roasted peppers in 2 batches in a blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids). Force purée through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on and discarding solids.
  • Cook garlic, cumin, oregano, and salt in butter in a 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, 1 minute. Add flour and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Whisk in chile mixture and simmer, whisking occasionally, until reduced to about 2 1/2 cups, 15 to 20 minutes. Add vinegar and salt to taste. Keep sauce warm, covered.
  • Grill steaks:
  • Prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderately high.
  • Pat steaks dry and season with salt. Grill steaks, uncovered, on lightly oiled grill rack, turning over once, 6 to 8 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer to a platter and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 5 minutes.
  • Serve steaks with sauce.
