Ingredients:

• 1 ? lbs. Flank Steak

Tequila & Lime Marinade:

• 1/2 cup fresh lime juice, about 2 large limes

• 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
• 1/2 cup shallots, chopped
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 cup tequila
• 1 tsp. ground cumin
• 1 tsp. dried oregano
• 2 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Preparation:

1. Combine all marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Place beef and marinade in a zip-top plastic bag. Turn steak to coat and lay in shallow baking pan. Place in refrigerator 6-24 hours turning occasionally. The longer the steak is marinated the more tender and flavorful it becomes.

2. Preheat gas or charcoal grill to 400°F.

3. Remove meat and discard marinade. Place steaks on oiled grates and grill for approximately 5 minutes on one side, or until moisture starts to pool on the top and beef releases easily from grates with tongs. Flip once, grilling on the other side for 5 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 135°F with meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the steak.

4. Transfer steaks to a platter and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Serve as steak, in fajitas or on top of a fresh salad!
