This spicy, chipotle marinade enhances the smokiness imparted by the grill. Add cilantro "chimichurri," a riff on the Argentinian classic, for even more fantastic flavor!
Ingredients
Chipotle Lime London Broil:
- 1 can chipotle en adobo
- 1 bunch cilantro stems (reserve leaves for chimichurri)
- 1 head roasted garlic
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 Fresh to Market London Broil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cilantro Chimichurri:
- 1 bunch cilantro leaves
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 jalapeño, roasted
- 1 lime, juiced
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
Preparation
In a blender or food processor, combine the chipotle, roasted garlic, cilantro stems, and lime juice, and puree until smooth. Salt and pepper the steak and then coat with the chipotle marinade. Refrigerate and allow to marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
Preheat the grill over medium-high heat.
Grill the steak over direct heat for 6-8 minutes per side for medium doneness.
While the steak is grilling, prepare the chimichurri. In a blender or food processor, add the cilantro leaves, garlic, jalapeño and lime juice. While the blender is running, slowly add the oil. Refrigerate until the steaks are cooked.
When the steak reaches an internal temperature of 135°F, remove from grill and allow to rest for at least 10 minutes. Slice on a heavy bias, and serve with a liberal helping of chimichurri.
