Chili-Lime Steak Rub

1 tsp. chili powder

1 tsp. granulated garlic

½ tsp. cumin

½ tsp. coriander

½ tsp. oregano

¼ tsp. cayenne pepper or chipotle chili powder

¾ tsp. salt

¼ tsp. black pepper

1 lime (about 2 Tbsp lime juice)

1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

1-2 lbs flank steak, or other good grilling cut (tenderloin, NY strip, and tri-tip all work well)

Juice the lime into a small bowl. Add oil and spices and stir to combine.

Place the steak in a shallow dish and pour the spice mixture on top. Use your hands to massage it in there.

Let it sit for 15 minutes.

Place meat on hot grill (bbq is best, but an indoor grill pan or broiler will work just fine too). If you’re using flank steak it should take about 5-7 minutes on each side

When steak is finished, remove from grill and let sit for 5 minutes before cutting into it

Slice in strips against the grain.
