Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups fresh corn (about 3 ears)
4 scallions, white and green parts thinly sliced separately
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 plum tomatoes, finely diced
1 to 2 fresh jalapeño chiles, finely diced (including seeds)
1 (2-pound) trimmed boneless sirloin steak, about 1 1/2 inches thick
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
Accompaniment: lime wedges

Steps:

  • Prepare grill for cooking.
  • Make corn salsa:
  • Heat a dry large cast-iron skillet over moderately high heat until hot, then pan-roast corn, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Cook white part of scallions in butter with garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon each cumin and chili powder, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until scallions are tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in corn, tomatoes, and jalapeños.
  • Grill steak:
  • Combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and sprinkle on both sides of steak. Grill, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into thickest part of meat registers 130°F, 18 to 20 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steak to a grooved cutting board and let stand 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
  • While steak is standing, reheat corn mixture over moderate heat, stirring occasionally. Stir in cilantro and scallion greens.
  • Spoon corn on top of sliced steak and pour over any accumulated juices.

Tips:

  • For the perfect steak, choose a thick cut (at least 1 inch) of rib eye, strip steak, or flank steak.
  • Make sure your steaks are at room temperature before cooking. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Season your steaks liberally with salt and pepper before cooking. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Sear your steaks in a hot skillet or grill for a few minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
  • Let your steaks rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
  • For the salsa, use fresh, ripe tomatoes, onions, and cilantro. You can also add other ingredients, such as corn, black beans, or jalapeños.
  • Serve the salsa immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Ancho garlic steaks with summer salsa is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The steaks are juicy and flavorful, and the salsa is refreshing and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
