Cooking Tools Required

Blender, Cutting board, Freezer bag, Kitchen towels, Measuring cups and spoons, Sharp Knives

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 pound flank steak

For the marinade:

  • 2 orange small, juiced
  • 3 lime juiced
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil
  • 3 clove garlic roughly chopped
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon chipotle chili powder
  • 5 tablespoon fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions

  • With a small, sharp paring knife, score the steak(s) on both sides.
  • Combine all the marinade ingredients in the bowl of a food processor or blender. Purée until smooth. Place the steak(s) in a large, re-sealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over it. Press out the air, seal the bag, and marinate at room temperature for at least 2 hours.
  • Prepare the coals on the grill until they are glowing red, with a white ash around them. Drain and discard the marinade and place the steak 4inches over the coals. Sear quickly, about 3 to 4minutes on each side
  • Move the steak away from the direct heat, cover the grill, and continue to cook until the internal temperature reaches 135o F, about 7 to 10minutes longer. Remove the steak from the grill and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Reheating Instructions
Heat in a large sauté pan over medium heat until heated through.
