total time:: 20 min

Makes 4 servings

Who doesn’t like steak? It barely needs seasoning to be good! That’s why this recipe is so great - unexpected seasonings make steak almost new again (like that was necessary).

ingredients

1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons fine ground espresso coffee
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 pound shoulder center steak (Ranch Steak), or top sirloin, about 1 1/4-inch thick

directions

Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and preheat it over medium-high heat. In a small bowl combine all the ingredients for the rub and coat the steak well on both sides. Cook steak for 14 minutes, turning once, for medium to medium-rare. Allow steak to sit for 5 minutes before slicing.
