Steaks With Chipotle-Garlic Chile Butter

4 1- to 11/2-inch-thick sirloin or New York steaks (10 to 12 ounces each)

4 T. unsalted butter, softened (1/2 stick)

1 canned chipotle chile in adobo sauce, finely chopped

1 t. adobo sauce from canned chipotle chilies

1 clove garlic, peeled

Salt and black pepper


Preheat the grill. Meanwhile, prepare the steaks and chile butter. Trim excess fat from the steaks and set them aside at room temperature. Put the unsalted butter, chipotle chile and adobo sauce in a mixing bowl. Press the garlic clove through a garlic press and into the bowl. Using a fork, mash together the ingredients. Set aside.

Carefully oil the grill rack. Season the steaks generously with salt and black pepper to taste. Place the steaks on the grill and cook, turning once, until done to your liking, 14 to 18 minutes for medium. Transfer the steaks to serving plates and immediately top each with a dollop of the chile butter.
