Method
Preparation of the Meat
- 1
Marinate the Arrachera
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and lime juice. Mix well to create a marinade. Add the arrachera and coat it thoroughly. Cover and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
- 2
Grill the Meat
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the arrachera from the marinade and place it on the hot grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness is achieved. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
- 3
Rest the Meat
Once cooked, remove the arrachera from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute within the meat.
