Chipotle Flank Steak With Black Bean Avocado Salsa Recipes

CLASSIC CHIPOTLE STEAK

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine all ingredients except steak. Set aside 1/4 cup of the sauce.
• Place steak in a resealable plastic bag. Pour remaining sauce over steak, seal bag, then turn bag over several times to evenly coat steak. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes to marinate.
• Preheat grill to medium heat.
• Remove steak from bag; discard marinade.
• Grill steak 13 to 16 minutes for medium-rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally and brushing with the reserved 1/4 cup of sauce.

CHIPOTLE BLACK BEAN SALSA

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in medium bowl. Cover.
• Refrigerate at least 30 minutes or until ready to serve. Serve with tortilla chips.

GRILLED CHILI FLANK STEAK WITH CHIPOTLE-TOMATILLO SALSA

Steps:

• Mix together garlic, brown sugar, chili powder, pepper, salt, and cumin until blended. Spread a heavy coating of the spice blend over both sides of flank steak and place in a large glass baking dish. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 8 hours.
• Preheat one side of an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove steak from the refrigerator and brush lightly with 1 tablespoon oil.
• Place steak on the hot side of the grill, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Flip steak, cover, and cook another 5 minutes. Move steak to to cooler side of the grill, cover, and cook until desired doneness, about 2 to 5 minutes longer. Remove from the grill and let rest for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spread tomatillos and garlic cloves on a baking sheet and drizzle lightly with 1 tablespoon oil.
• Roast in the preheated oven until vegetables are soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove vegetables from the oven and cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Scoop tomatillos and garlic into the bowl of a food processor or blender. Add chipotle peppers and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil; pulse until blended but still slightly chunky. Pour into a serving dish and let cool.
• Slice flank steak thinly against the grain and serve with salsa.

CHIPOTLE-MARINATED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH BLACK BEAN SALSA

Steps:

• Make the pork marinade: Process chile, garlic, onion, lime juice, vinegar, and oregano in a blender until smooth. Rub marinade all over the pork. Transfer pork to a dish, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a grill pan over high heat. Grill pork until seared on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer pan to the oven; cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of meat registers 145 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Let pork stand at room temperature 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, make the salsa: Stir together the black beans, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime juice, chile, and cumin in a small bowl. Serve with the pork.
