Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, dried oregano, black pepper, salt, and chili powder until well combined.

  2. 2

    Add Cilantro

    Stir in the chopped fresh cilantro into the marinade mixture.

Marinating the Steak

  1. 3

    Prepare the Steak

    Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.

  2. 4

    Marinate

    Pour the marinade over the flank steak, ensuring it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Cooking the Steak

  1. 5

    Preheat Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).

  2. 6

    Grill the Steak

    Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the flank steak for about 6-8 minutes on each side for medium-rare or until desired doneness is reached.

  3. 7

    Rest the Steak

    Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Serving

  1. 8

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve with toppings like chopped onions, sliced avocados, fresh lime wedges, and sour cream.
