Steak Marinade

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Steak

    Cut the flank steak into bite-sized pieces and add to the marinade. Mix until the steak is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

    Remove the steak from the marinade and thread the pieces onto skewers. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.

    Grill the Vegetables

    While the steak is cooking, toss the diced tomatoes, sliced onion, bell peppers, and jalapeños in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
