Ingredients

For the Chipotle Spice Paste

  • 1/4 cup Gefen Olive Oil

  • 1 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro sprigs, washed and checked

  • 4 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped

  • 3 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons ground cumin, such as Pereg

  • 2 tablespoons ground coriander

  • 1 tablespoon dry mustard

  • kosher salt

  • freshly ground black pepper

  • fresh lime juice

For the Steak and Salad

  • 4 bone-in rib-eye steaks, preferably long bone, each about 1 and 1/2 inches thick

  • 3 tablespoons Haddar Dijon Mustard

  • 3 tablespoons Tuscanini Apple Cider Vinegar

  • juice of 1/2 lemon

  • 1 teaspoon chopped garlic

  • 1 teaspoon chopped shallot

  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar

  • 1/2 teaspoon cracked yellow mustard seeds

  • 1/2 cup Gefen Olive Oil

  • 4 ears corn, preferably yellow, shucked

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, plus whole leaves for garnish

  • lime wedges, for garnish

Directions

Prepare the Chipotle Spice Paste

1.

In a blender or food processor, combine the olive oil, cilantro, garlic, chipotle chiles, cumin, coriander, mustard, one tablespoon salt, and two tablespoons pepper. Pulse to chop roughly, then process until smooth. Season to taste with lime juice. Use right away, or cover and refrigerate for up to one week.

Marinate

1.

At least 30 minutes before you are ready to begin grilling, remove the steaks from the refrigerator. Rub the spice paste over both sides of the steaks.

Prepare the Salad

1.

In a blender or food processor, combine the mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, shallot, sugar, and mustard seeds. Pulse briefly to mix. With the motor running, slowly add the oil and process until the mixture emulsifies.

To Grill

1.

Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for direct grilling over two levels of heat, one high (450 to 550 degrees Fahrenheit) and one medium-high (400 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit). Brush and oil the grill grate.

2.

Place the corn on the grill over the medium-high zone and cook, turning every couple of minutes, until they are lightly charred all the way around and the kernels are tender, five to seven minutes. Let cool while you grill the steaks.

3.

Place the steaks on the hottest part of the grill and cook for four minutes. Using tongs or a wide spatula, rotate each steak a quarter turn (90 degrees), and continue cooking for another three minutes, then turn the steaks. Cook the steaks until well marked and cooked to your liking, about another 5 minutes for medium-rare, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a steak away from the bone registers 135 degrees Fahrenheit. If you want to cook the steaks to medium, find a cool spot along the edge of your charcoal grill or cut the burners down on your gas grill to medium heat.

4.

Transfer the steaks to warmed plates and let rest for five to 10 minutes. Holding each ear of corn stem-end-down on a board, cut off the kernels with a sharp knife. Transfer the kernels to a bowl. Pour the mustard dressing over the corn, add the tomatoes and basil, and toss well. Serve the steaks at once and pass the salad at the table, garnished with basil leaves and lime wedges.
