Steak Tacos Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Flank Steak

   In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic cloves, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

   Place the flank steak in the marinade and ensure it's evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

4. 4

   Cook the Steak

   Grill or sear the marinated steak to perfection.

   Cook the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy (135°F for medium-rare).
