Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, chopped cilantro, cumin powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it is well coated.
  3. Seal the bag or cover the dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  5. Remove the flank steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off.
  6. Grill the steak for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness (medium rare is recommended).

  8. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with your choice of sides like grilled vegetables or fresh salsa.
