Chili Steak with Pan Salsa

Any cut of steak will work for this recipe, but we especially like the flavor and texture of rib-eye with these seasonings; look for steak that has been thinly cut. A cold ale, sweet potato fries and vinegary coleslaw can round out the meal.
Prep: 20 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes
-
8 ounces
thick steaks such as rib-eye,, trimmed of fat and cut into 2 portions; 1/2-inch
-
1 teaspoon
chili powder
-
1/2 teaspoon
kosher salt, divided
-
1 teaspoon
extra-virgin olive oil
-
2
plum tomatoes, diced
-
2 teaspoons
lime juice
-
1 tablespoon
fresh cilantro, chopped
- Sprinkle both sides of steak with chili powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook, turning once, 1 to 2 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer the steaks to a plate, cover with foil and let rest while you make the salsa.
- Add tomatoes, lime juice and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt to the pan and cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes soften, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in cilantro and any accumulated juices from the steaks. Serve the steaks topped with the salsa.
