Ingredients:
1/4 cup adobo sauce (from a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions:
Blend the adobo sauce in a blender or food processor until smooth.

Marinate your New York strip steaks for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
Grill the steaks to your desired doneness, discarding the marinade.
Tips:
No matter which marinade you choose, be sure to remove the steaks from the marinade and pat them dry before grilling. This will help them sear properly.
If you're short on time, you can marinate the steaks for as little as 30 minutes, but the longer they marinate, the more flavorful they will be.
Don't reuse marinade that has been in contact with raw meat. Discard it after use.
With either of these marinades, your New York strip steaks will be sure to impress!
