Rub and Sauce
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Make the Rub
In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the flat iron steak, covering it completely. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to marinate.
Prepare the Chipotle-Lime Sauce
In another bowl, combine chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, lime juice, olive oil, fresh cilantro, and honey. Mix well and set aside.
Rest and Serve
Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice against the grain and serve with the chipotle-lime sauce drizzled on top.
