Instructions

  1. On a cutting board, use the blade and flat side of a chef’s knife to chop and smash garlic and 1 1/2 tsp salt together to form a paste. In a small bowl, use fingers to mix together garlic paste, cilantro, 2 tsp lime zest, 1/2 tsp black pepper, cumin, and cayenne. Add diced red pepper; toss to coat.
  2. Off heat, coat a grill rack or grill pan with nonstick spray; heat to medium-high heat. Season steaks with additional salt and pepper, if desired, and grill to desired degree of doneness, 3-4 minutes per side.
  3. Transfer steak to a serving platter; let rest 5 minutes. Serve filets topped with red pepper mixture.
