Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds London Broil (flank or top round steak)
- 0.5 cups Tequila
- 0.25 cups Fresh lime juice
- 0.25 cups Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 whole Jalapeño, finely chopped (optional for heat)
- 1 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the tequila, lime juice, olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, jalapeño (if using), cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.
Place the London Broil in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, and discard the remaining marinade.
Grill or broil the steak for 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time based on your preferred doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature (135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium).
Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest on a cutting board, covered loosely with foil, for 10 minutes.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before serving. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
