CHIPOTLE-COFFEE STEAK SALAD WITH GRILLED CORN AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Combine coffee, chile powder, 2 tsp. salt, 1 tsp. brown sugar, and 1/2 tsp. coriander in a wide shallow bowl. Coat steaks evenly with rub. Let rest at room temperature 1-2 hours.

Grill steaks, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 120°F, 8-10 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest at least 15 minutes before thinly slicing.
• Meanwhile, lightly brush corn and tomatoes with oil. Grill, turning often, until tender and charred in spots, 5-10 minutes for tomatoes and 10-15 minutes for corn. Let cool slightly. Transfer tomatoes to a large bowl. Cut kernels from cobs and transfer to bowl with tomatoes.
• Whisk lime juice and remaining 3 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. brown sugar, and 1/2 tsp. coriander in a small bowl. Pour over tomatoes and corn. Add romaine, pickled onions, cheese, and 1/2 cup cilantro and toss to combine. Top with sliced steak and more cilantro.

• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the frozen corn; cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the evaporated milk. Cook until thick and creamy, about 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Broil the steak 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let sit 5 to 10 minutes, then slice against the grain. Serve the steak with the creamed corn; sprinkle with the scallions and serve with lime wedges.

RIB-EYE STEAK WITH WARM TOMATO CORN SALAD
