Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a wide glass pan, mix the following ingredients: tequila, lime juice, honey, brown sugar, chopped garlic cloves, and cilantro. Blend well.
Salt and pepper the meat, then add it to the marinade. Refrigerate for a couple of hours, turning occasionally.
Remove the meat from the glass pan and place the tequila-lime mixture in a small, heavy-bottom pan.
Add the two tablespoons sugar, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium heat until reduced by a third. 10 to 15 minutes.
Add the butter to the reduced marinade and swirl over medium heat.
Prepare the grill or heat a grill pan to high heat. Place the meat on the grill and cook until desired doneness is reached.
Serve sauce over the sliced meat.

Notes

Piercing the steak all over with a fork allows the marinade to penetrate deep into the meat, tenderizing it from the inside out. The longer it marinates, the more the flavor will be infused into your meat.
