01 Step

Recipe View Prepare the Jalapeño Marinade: In a blender, combine the stemmed jalapeño peppers, lime juice, peeled garlic cloves, dried oregano, coarse salt, and cracked black pepper. Blend until completely smooth, forming a vibrant green marinade. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Marinate the Steak: Place the top sirloin steak in a shallow dish or a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the jalapeño marinade evenly over the steak, ensuring all surfaces are well coated. Cover the dish or seal the bag, pressing out any excess air. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the meat. (8-24 hours)

Recipe View Prepare the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat. Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the grates to prevent the steak from sticking. (10 minutes)

Recipe View Grill the Steak: Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the used marinade. Place the steak on the preheated grill and cook to your desired level of doneness, flipping halfway through. For medium-rare, grill for approximately 4-5 minutes per side. For medium, grill for 5-6 minutes per side. (8-12 minutes)

Recipe View Rest and Serve: Once the steak reaches your desired internal temperature, remove it from the grill and transfer it to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeños before blending.
Marinating the steak for a longer period (up to 24 hours) will result in a more intense flavor.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the steak is cooked to your desired doneness. Medium-rare is 130-135°F, medium is 135-145°F.
Serve this steak with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh salad.
