  1. 1

    Prepare Marinade

    In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.

    Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over the steak. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight for best results).

    Once rested, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
