Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Steak

    Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, seal the bag or cover the dish, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steak

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the excess marinade. Grill the steak for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.

  4. 4

    Rest and Slice

    Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.

  5. 5

    Warm the Tortillas

    While the steak is resting, warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Platter

    Serve the sliced steak on a platter, garnished with fresh cilantro. Offer warm tortillas, sour cream, and pico de gallo on the side for assembly.
