Flank steak is one of those cuts that lends itself to a good long marinade, it gets extra tender this way. This method also allows all the flavors to penetrate the meat and soak in, which is a bonus for your taste buds! We typically ALWAYS let the flank steak marinade for at least 24 hours and since this is actually a pretty simple marinade you can have it bathing in the deliciousness in no time. Tuck it away in the fridge the night before and by dinner time the next day you’re all set!

Process

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
  1. Place flank steaks in a shallow non reactive pan or a 2 gallon zip lock bag, sprinkle spice mix on all sides of each steak. Massage spice mix into each steak with your hands in the dish or inside the bag.
  2. Pour juice on top of the steaks along with the avocado oil and cilantro if adding. Cover the dish with plastic wrap or If using the bag, release as much air as possible, zip it shut and lay flat in the fridge (on a baking sheet in case of leakage) and let it marinate overnight. You can marinate it for less time, but shoot for at least a minimum of 4-6 hours.
  3. Once ready to grill, remove flank steaks from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. When ready to grill, remove the steaks from the marinade and place on the prepared grill. Discard marinade.
  4. We like to grill ours to about medium, but you choose the doneness you’d like! Once it comes off the grill, tent it with foil for about 10 minutes so it can rest and then slice into thin strips, squeeze a couple fresh limes up on top and you’re all set!
