1
Season the Steak
Rub the top sirloin steak with olive oil, salt, and black pepper on both sides. Let it sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
2
Grill the Steak
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is achieved. Remove from grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

3
Blend the Sauce Ingredients
In a blender, combine the chipotle peppers, minced garlic, olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.
4
Heat the Sauce
Transfer the sauce to a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

5
Sauté the Shrimp
In a large skillet, add a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and opaque.
6
Combine Shrimp with Sauce
Pour the chipotle sauce over the cooked shrimp and stir to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.

7
Plate the Dish
Slice the rested steak and arrange it on a plate. Spoon the drowned shrimp with chipotle sauce over the steak. Serve warm.
