If desired, garnish with lettuce and onions.
Chile-Rubbed Sirloin
Makes 1 steak
This recipe is scaled for a single steak, which when diced is enough for one tray of nachos. But don't be shy about grilling up several steaks as their own dinner entr�e (increasing the recipe ingredients accordingly), and saving enough meat to adorn nachos the following day.
Seasoning Mix (per steak)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red chiles
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
Ingredients
3/4 pound sirloin steak
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce, preferably Kikkoman
1. In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the Seasoning Mix. Rub the steak all over with the seasoning mix. Let rest at room temperature 15 minutes.
2. Heat a grill or the broiler until very hot. Rub the steak all over with the olive oil and soy sauce. Grill or broil the steak very close to the heat, about 3 minutes per side, until medium rare. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing or dicing.
