Lime-Soaked Cumin-Crusted Flank Steak
A very flavorful way to enjoy flank steak. Goes great with some spicy poblano corn salad.
Adapted from Joelen’s Culinary Adventures
Ingredients
2 lbs flank steak
1 cup fresh lime juice (about 8 limes)
Rub
1 1/2 tbsp ground cumin
1/2 tbsp garlic powder
1/3 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Directions
1. Place the steak in a shallow dish and pour the lime juice over it. Cover the dish and let it stand in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour, turning occasionally.
2. In a small bowl, combine all the rub ingredients and mix well. Remove the steak from the marinade, pat dry with paper towels, and rub it all over with the spice rub, pressing gently to be sure it sticks.
3. Pre-heat grill to medium. Place the steak on the grill and cook until well-seared on one side, about 4 minutes. Turn and continue to cook to the desired doneness, about 4 minutes more for rare.
4. Remove the steak from the heat, cover it loosely with foil, and allow it to rest for 5 minutes.
5. Slice the steak as thin as possible against the grain and serve.
