Ingredients

• 2 pounds Flank steak
• 0.25 cups Olive oil
• 0.25 cups Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, honey, ground cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Whisk together until fully emulsified.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a large, resealable plastic bag or shallow glass dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 3

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Discard the used marinade.

Step 5

Place the flank steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the time to your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.

Step 6

Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 7

Slice the steak thinly against the grain to ensure tender slices. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired.

Step 8

Serve the grilled flank steak immediately with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
