Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
Pinch of chipotle chile powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound skirt steak, trimmed and cut into 4 equal portions
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for oiling the grill grates
1 habanero chile, stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped
1 ripe mango, peeled, seeded and diced (about 1 1/4 cups)
2 limes, 1 juiced and 1 cut into wedges
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to high heat.
  • Mix together the brown sugar, chipotle, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Rub into the steaks and set aside for 15 minutes.
  • While the steak rests, crush the garlic clove, sprinkle with a pinch of salt, and mash into a coarse paste using flat side of a large knife. Mix the garlic paste with the cilantro, oil, habanero, mango, lime juice and scallions in a medium bowl. Season with salt and as much of the remaining habanero as desired for spiciness. Set aside.
  • Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill steaks until well charred on the outside and medium-rare, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes then slice steaks across the grain and serve with the mango salsa and a lime wedge.
