INGREDIENTS

  • Marinade

    • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
    • 🧄 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
    • ½ cup olive oil
    • 🍋 2 limes, juiced
    • 🍊 1 orange, juiced
    • 2 tablespoons white vinegar

  • Meat

    • 2 pounds flank steak, trimmed of fat
    • 🧂 Salt and ground black pepper to taste

STEPS

1

Combine jalapeno, garlic, kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a mortar. Grind into a paste.

2

Pour lime juice, orange juice, and vinegar into a glass bottle or lidded container; add garlic mixture and shake well.

3

Place steak in a shallow bowl and pour marinade over. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until steak absorbs flavors, 4 to 6 hours.

4

Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

5

Remove steak from the marinade and place on a cutting board. Season with salt and pepper and slice against the grain into thin strips.

6

Grill until slightly charred and light pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side.
