Preparation and Grilling

1. Marinate the Steak

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, black pepper, and minced jalapeño. Whisk together until well mixed. Add the flank steak, ensuring it is well-coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best flavor.

2. Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to high heat. Make sure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

3. Grill the Steak

Remove the steak from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the steak on the hot grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

4. Rest and Serve

Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice against the grain and serve with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables or tortillas.
