2 Grill Prep
3 The Cook
- Oil grate. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until lightly browned all over, 8–10 minutes; let cool. Cut kernels from cobs and place in a medium bowl. Add onion, jalapeño, tomatoes, cilantro, and lime juice to corn and toss to combine; season with salt and pepper. Set salsa aside.
- Grill steak, turning occasionally and moving to a cooler spot on grill as needed to control flare-ups, until nicely browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
- Return steak to grill just to re-crisp exterior, about 1 minute per side. Transfer back to cutting board and slice against the grain. Serve topped with salsa.
