Chipotle Bavette Steak With Lime Corn And Chunky Salsa Recipes

CHIPOTLE BAVETTE STEAK WITH LIME CORN AND CHUNKY SALSA

Steps:

• Mix together the ingredients for the marinade. Put the steaks in a sealable plastic bag, add the marinade, massage well and chill overnight.
• The next day, take the steak out of the fridge to come to room temperature. Meanwhile, stir the coriander into the soured cream, season and set aside. To make the salsa, combine the ingredients, then season with a little salt. For the lime corn, mash the butter with lime zest and seasoning, then chill. Bring a pan of water to the boil and drop in the corn. Simmer for 5-8 mins until tender.
• Heat a griddle pan until hot. Wipe the marinade from the steaks, then rub both sides with a drizzle of oil and some seasoning. Cook for 3-4 mins (depending on their thickness) on each side for medium rare, then allow to rest. See below left for griddling tips.
• While the meat is resting, wipe out the griddle pan, add the corn and cook over a medium heat for 5 mins or until nicely charred. Top each cob with a knob of the lime butter. Slice the steaks across the grain and serve with the corn, salsa and coriander soured cream.

CHIPOTLE CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Mix corn, onion, cilantro, lime juice, chipotle pepper, and salt together in a bowl.

CHIPOTLE SKIRT STEAK FAJITAS W/AVOCADO CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Whisk all of the marinade ingredients together in a small bowl. Place skirt steak in a zip-lock bag. Pour the marinade over the steak and squeeze to distribute marinade; refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, turning once or twice.
• To make the salsa: Combine all of the ingredients except the avocado and cilantro in a bowl. Toss to distribute ingredients. Adjust seasoning. (Salsa may be made in advance to this point; cover and refrigerate). Before serving add avocado and cilantro. Gently toss to combine.
• Remove steak from refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Discard marinade. Grill steak over direct high heat, turning once, until desired doneness, 8-10 minutes for medium-rare or 6 about minutes for rare. Transfer to cutting board and rest for 5 minutes. Cut against the grain in thin strips.
• To assemble fajitas: Warm tortillias (stovetop, microwave or oven method) spoon Avocado Corn Salsa over a tortilla. Top with a few steak strips.
• Garnish with cheese, tomato salsa, sour cream, fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime.

3-INGREDIENT CHIPOTLE-LIME GRILLED STEAK

Steps:

• Blend chile, adobo sauce, 1 tsp. lime zest, lime juice, oil, 1 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1 tsp. pepper in a blender until smooth. Place steak in a large resealable plastic bag, pour marinade over, and toss to coat. Marinate, tossing occasionally, at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or chill overnight.
• If chilled, let steak sit at room temperature 30 minutes. Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade; discard marinade. Grill steak until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of steak registers 120-125°F for medium-rare, 2-3 minutes per side for skirt; 3-4 minutes per side for flank. Let rest 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain (to make slicing easier for skirt steak, cut into 5-6" segments, then slice against the grain).
• Transfer to a platter and top with remaining 1/2 tsp. lime zest; season with salt and pepper. Serve with lime wedges alongside.
