Coffee and Ancho Chile Skirt Steak with Green Chile-Apple Relish

1 tablespoon finely ground coffee

1 tablespoon ancho chile powder*

About 2 tsp. kosher salt

1 1/2 teaspoons packed light or dark brown sugar

1 skirt steak (1 1/2 to 2 lbs.)

1/4 pound mild green chiles, such as Anaheim or poblano, cut in half and seeded

1/2 tart apple, such as Granny Smith, quartered and cored

1/2 small onion, cut into thick slices

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Pepper

1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano leaves

1/2 teaspoon lime juice

Step 1

Heat a grill to medium-high (350° to 450°). In a small bowl, combine coffee, chile powder, 2 tsp. salt, and the brown sugar. Rub all over steak and let sit. Rub green chiles, apple, and onion with oil and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Grill steak, turning once (dry rub on meat will be very dark), 8 to 10 minutes total for medium-rare. Meanwhile, grill chiles, apple, and onion until lightly charred all over, 6 to 8 minutes.

Step 3

Transfer everything to a cutting board, tent steak with foil, and let rest 5 minutes. Meanwhile, chop chiles, apple, and onion and transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in oregano and lime juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Thinly slice steak against the grain and top with chile-apple relish.

Step 5

*Find ancho chile powder at well-stocked grocery stores.
