Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Flank steak
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh oregano, chopped
- 0.5 cup Orange juice
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
- 4 pieces Lime wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped oregano, orange juice, orange zest, ground cumin, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or a large zip-top bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
When ready to cook, remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or pan to prevent sticking.
Remove the steak from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and place it on the hot grill. Discard the remaining marinade.
Grill the steak for 4-6 minutes per side, depending on your desired level of doneness. Aim for medium-rare, with an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest on a cutting board, tented with aluminum foil, for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain for maximum tenderness.
Optionally, garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges for added brightness.
Enjoy your flavorful Flank Steak with Garlic Oregano Orange and Cumin!
