Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef steak (ribeye, sirloin, or tenderloin)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 2 pieces habanero peppers, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Pat the beef steaks dry with paper towels and set them aside on a clean plate.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, chopped habanero peppers, red chili flakes, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, sea salt, and lime juice to create a spicy marinade.
Step 3
Rub the marinade evenly onto both sides of the beef steaks, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Place the steaks in a resealable plastic bag or a covered dish and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours for extra flavor).
Step 4
Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450-500°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Once the grill is hot, place the marinated beef steaks onto the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side, then flip and cook for another 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired doneness (130-135°F for medium-rare, 140-145°F for medium).
Step 6
Remove the cooked steaks from the grill and let them rest on a cutting board for 5-7 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Step 7
Sprinkle the steaks with freshly chopped cilantro before serving. Serve hot with your favorite sides, like grilled vegetables or a fresh green salad.
