A flavorful and easy-to-make grilled tri-tip steak recipe with a zesty lime-chipotle glaze.
Combine the honey, chipotle chiles, Dijon mustard, lime juice, minced garlic, allspice, cumin, and chopped cilantro in a mixing bowl.
For a smoother marinade, blend the ingredients in a food processor.
Place the tri-tip steak in a resealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Marinating overnight will enhance the flavor even more.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting the excess drip off, and reserve the marinade.
Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the steak for about 6-8 minutes per side, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade.
Use a meat thermometer to check for desired doneness.
While the steak is grilling, simmer the reserved marinade in a small saucepan for 5 minutes to ensure it's safe to use as a sauce.
Simmering the marinade intensifies its flavor.
Let the steak rest for 5 minutes after grilling, then slice it against the grain.
Slicing against the grain ensures tender pieces.
Serve the sliced steak with the simmered marinade drizzled on top.
Garnish with fresh cilantro for a pop of color and flavor.
