Coffee-Marinated Steak Recipe

American · Main course · 20 min total

This recipe uses a bold coffee marinade to create a deeply flavorful crust on a tender steak, perfect for grilling or pan-searing.

Ingredients

• 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks (about 8 oz each)
• 2 tablespoons finely ground coffee
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, combine ground coffee, brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Rub the steaks with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, then coat evenly with the coffee rub. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Cook steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to desired doneness.
4. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips

• Adjust resting time based on steak thickness.
• Leftover steak can be sliced cold for salads or sandwiches.
