Instructions
- In a blender, combine orange juice, fresh lime juice, vegetable oil, soy sauce, halved and seeded jalapeno, 3 cloves of garlic, and cumin. Pulse until blended.
- Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over it. Ensure the steak is well-coated and marinate for at least 4 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the marinated steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature while the grill heats up.
- Grill the steak for 7-9 minutes on one side. Flip the steak and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
- Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and allow it to rest for 10 minutes.
- While the steak is resting, grill the corn tortillas just until they are softened and lightly browned on the edges. Wrap the warmed tortillas in aluminum foil to keep them warm.
- After the steak has rested, slice it against the grain and then cut it into small pieces.
- Assemble the tacos by filling the warmed tortillas with steak, pico de gallo, and guacamole.
Notes
- Leftover steak can be stored in a covered container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stovetop or on the grill and add to wraps, salads, or quesadillas!
