Marinate the Protein
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the flank steak or chicken breast, coating it well with the marinade. Cover and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Grill the Protein

Cook flank steak for about 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, or chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, until fully cooked. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
