Mexican Spiced Steak With Chipotle Con Queso Sauce

A recipe out of everyday with rachael ray magazine. i love spicy food so this is perfect. it does have a heck of a kick! it's my favorite way to prepare steaks. i have never used the smoked cheddar since i can't find it at my grocery store, so i use regular cheddar cheese.
