Method
- In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, chopped chipotle peppers, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
- Add the flank steak to the marinade, ensuring it's well coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
- Heat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Place it on the grill or skillet, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, aiming for 130°F for medium-rare.
- Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
- After resting, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
- Serve your steak in tacos, burritos, or on a salad.
Notes
For an even bolder flavor, let the steak marinate overnight.
