Ingredients
For the marinade:
- ¼ Cup avocado oil
- ⅓ Cup soy sauce
- 1 Juice from ½ a Grapefruit
- 1 Juice from 1 lemon
- 1 Juice from 2 limes
- 1 Juice from 1 orange
- 3 Cloves garlic Minced
- 2 Tablespoons fresh cilantro Chopped
- ¼ Cup brown sugar
- 1 Teaspoon salt
- 1 Teaspoon black pepper
- 1 Teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 Teaspoon chili powder
For Cooking:
- 1 Tablespoon avocado oil
- 2 Pound Marinated Flank Steak or Skirt Steak
Instructions
For the Marinade
- Place the steak in a 2” deep rectangle baking dish such as a pyrex dish.
- Whisk together all of the marinade ingredients. Pour the marinade over the steak and cover.
- Let marinade in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours, flipping the steak over every hour.
For Cooking
- Heat a cast iron grill or skillet over medium high heat until lightly smoking. Brush the 1 tablespoon of avocado oil on the pan and add the steak to the pan (you may have to cut the steak in half before cooking to fit and cook in 2 batches).
- Sear the steak 5-6 minutes on both sides until it reaches an internal temperature of 125℉.
- Remove the steak from the pan and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing (the internal temperature of the steak will rise by 5-10 degrees while resting).
- Slice and serve with lime wedges and cilantro. Enjoy!
