Char-Grilled Lime-Marinated Ribeye

Char-Grilled Lime-Marinated Ribeye
  1. 1

    Mix lime juice, carne asada seasoning, and oil in a resealable plastic bag.

  2. 2

    Add ribeye steak, seal the bag again, and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 to 45 minutes.

  3. 3

    Drain the marinade and let the steak reach room temperature, about 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Blot any excess moisture from the steak.

  5. 5

    Preheat the grill to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C) and lightly oil the grate.

  6. 6

    Place the steak on the grill over direct heat. For rare, cook until browned on the outside and red in the center, about 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register 125 degrees F (52 degrees C).

  7. 7

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
