Are you sparking up the grill this Memorial Day weekend? Of course you are! When honoring the service members who have fought for our freedom this weekend, try this coffee-inspired rub from food historian, Ms. Francine Segan, on meats like London Broil and chicken breasts.
3/4 cup finely ground espresso
2 tablespoons Spanish paprika
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon coarse sea salt
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, plus more to taste
1. Combine all spices in a bowl.
2. Uses: Sprinkle into your favorite chili, baked bean or stew recipe. Stir into ketchup, honey, or BBQ sauce. Drizzle a little olive oil onto steaks, chops, fish, or chicken and then press on a good thick layer of the rub. Grill, broil, or pan fry.
