Ingredients
Instructions
Combine the garlic, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, orange juice and olive oil in a blender and blend until smooth. Remove, taste and season as needed. Reserve ¼ cup of the marinade. Place the steak in a large baking dish and cover with the remaining marinade for 4-5 hours.
Heat a grill over high heat and grill the flank steak for 3-5 minutes on each side. Remove from the grill and brush with the remaining marinade before slicing. Let rest for 5-10 minutes and then slice against the grain. Serve alongside tortillas, pico and guacamole.
