Method
Preparation of Steak
Marinate the Steak
In a bowl, combine the flank steak with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Ensure the steak is well coated. Cover and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor.
Rest the Steak
Remove the steak from heat and let it rest for 10 minutes. This helps retain the juices.
Cube the Steak
Once rested, chop the steak into small cubes and set aside.
Preparation of Ranchero Sauce (optional)
Combine Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped onion, diced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Stir until well mixed.
Season to Taste
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with salt or additional lime juice, if needed.
