Here’s a simple dry rub packed with the earthy, fruity, slightly spicy flavor of ancho chiles. It’s delicious on grass-fed beef!
Ingredients Makes 3/4 Cup
- 2 T Cilantro
- 3 Garlic Cloves
- 2 T Lime Juice
- 4 Ancho Chilies
- 2 t Salt
- 2 T Oil
Instructions
1
Put the ancho chilies in a small bowl and pour boiling water over them. Put a lid, silverware or some other weight on top of them to keep them submerged. Steep them for 15 minutes, then drain off the water.
2
Cut the stems off the chilies and remove their seeds. Add them to a blender or small food processor with the cilantro, garlic cloves, lime juice, salt and oil. Blend until a smooth paste forms.
3
Rub the paste all over the beef & put it in your refrigerator for several hours. (You could also cook it right away, but the flavor won’t be quite as good.)
4
Cook!
