Grilled Cuban Flank Steak

Grilled Cuban Flank Steak

Flank steak is delicious when it’s marinated in Cuban flavors and grilled, and this tasty Grilled Cuban Flank Steak is a perfect idea for a low-carb meal.

INGREDIENTS

1 large piece of flank steak (this recipe makes enough marinade for 3 pounds of meat)

MARINADE INGREDIENTS:

  •  1/3 cup fresh lime juice
  •  1/4 cup olive oil
  •  1 tsp. ground cumin
  •  1 tsp. dried oregano
  •  1 tsp. onion powder
  •  1 tsp. garlic powder
  •  1 T soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp. ground chipotle chile powder (or use your favorite hot sauce)
  •  2 tsp. lime zest (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Combine marinade ingredients. Put flank steak into a ziploc bag and pour marinade in, seal bag, and marinate all day in refrigerator. (You can marinate up to 24 hours if desired.)
  2. Take meat out of refrigerator and let it come to room temperature before grilling.
  3. Oil the grill with a paper towel dipped in olive oil, then preheat gas or charcoal barbecue grill to medium-high (you can only keep your hand there for a few seconds.)
  4. Grill meat to desired doneness, approximately 4-5 minutes per side for rare to medium rare or 6 minutes for medium. I wouldn’t cook flank steak more than medium or it will be tough.
  5. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of your flank steak, the best way to judge the doneness is to use a meat thermometer, cooking to 140-145 for medium rare or 155-160 for medium.
  6. Remove meat from grill and let rest about 5 minutes. (You can cover with foil to keep it warm if needed.)
  7. Slice across the grain and serve hot, with slices of fresh lime to squeeze on the meat.

    Cuban food does not use any type of hot sauce or chipotle sauces. EVER.
