Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine lime juice, orange juice, olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Steak

    Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

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

  2. 4

    Grill the Steak

    Remove the steak from the marinade, letting excess marinade drip off. Place the steak on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.

  3. 5

    Rest the Steak

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

Serving

  1. 6

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve with chopped cilantro, diced onion, sliced jalapeños, and lime wedges on the side.
