This sirloin steak marinates in a sweet and spicy sriracha glaze before hitting a hot grill, developing a caramelized crust while staying tender inside. The marinade balances honey's sweetness with sriracha's heat, finished with a splash of lime for brightness. It works well for a weeknight dinner or weekend cookout alongside grilled vegetables or rice.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak, about 1 inch thick
  • 1/4 cup sriracha sauce
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges, for serving

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sriracha, honey, soy sauce, vegetable oil, garlic, lime juice, and ginger until combined.

  2. Season the steak with salt and pepper, then place it in a shallow dish or resealable bag. Pour two-thirds of the sriracha mixture over the steak, reserving the rest for basting and serving.

  3. Cover and marinate the steak in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, turning once halfway through.

  4. Remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before grilling.

  5. Preheat a grill to high heat, about 450°F, and clean the grates.

  6. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and discard the used marinade.

  7. Grill the steak for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare, basting with the reserved sriracha mixture during the last 2 minutes of cooking.

  8. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.

  9. Garnish the sliced steak with chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
