Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces T-bone steaks
- 1 cup Fresh orange juice
- 0.5 cup Fresh lime juice
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 6 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh oregano leaves, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- 4 pieces Lime wedges (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to create the mojo marinade.
Place the T-bone steaks into a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the mojo marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate the steaks for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the meat.
Remove the steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the steaks from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels. Discard the remaining marinade.
Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until the desired level of doneness is reached. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium.
Once cooked, remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes to retain their juices.
Garnish the steaks with fresh parsley and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of citrus flavor.
