Spicy Steak Marinade Recipes

SPICY LIME-CILANTRO MARINATED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Puree the garlic, onion, lime juice, jalapeno, thyme, cilantro, corn oil, and honey into the bowl of a blender or food processor until the ingredients are well incorporated. Marinate the flank steak with 1/2 cup of the puree in a resealable bag overnight in the refrigerator. Reserve the rest of the puree to use later as a sauce.
• Preheat a grill for medium-high heat.
• While grill is warming, remove the meat from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Discard any marinade left in the bag. Liberally season the steak with the kosher salt, and cook to desired doneness, approximately 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• To serve, slice the steak against the grain into 1/8 to 1/4 inch slices, and drizzle the remaining marinade over the meat.

SPICY STEAK MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients (if not using right away, be sure to chill).
• Note: You can adjust many of the ingredients to taste, i.e. more or less garlic (always more for me), more or less Tabasco, onion etc.
• I like to mix the marinade in a large plastic freezer bag and then I add 4 boneless NY Strips (the bag method works best with boneless steaks).
• I let the steaks marinade (the longer the better) turning the bag over several times.
• And to me, steaks should never be cooked more than medium, I personally am a rare to mid-rare person but for best flavor they should never be cooked more than medium.
• Lastly, once I remove the steaks I simmer the remaining marinade and serve it separately as a steak sauce.
