Ingredients
- Chuck eye steak
- 2 (about 1 inch thick, 1 pound each)
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Paprika
- 1 teaspoon
- Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon
- Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or a skillet over high heat, ensuring it's hot enough to sear the steak.
- In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt to create a savory spice rub.
- Rub the olive oil over both sides of the chuck eye steaks. Then generously apply the spice rub, ensuring an even coating.
- Place the steaks on the grill or skillet. For medium-rare, cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, adjusting the time based on your desired level of doneness.
- Once cooked, remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Slice the steaks against the grain and serve hot, perhaps with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
Tips
- For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the steaks in a mixture of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and fresh herbs for a few hours before seasoning and cooking.
- Pair your steak with a chimichurri sauce for a zesty touch. To make chimichurri, blend together 1 cup of fresh parsley, 1/2 cup of olive oil, 1/4 cup of red wine vinegar, 4 minced garlic cloves, and a pinch of salt.
