12 servings

  • 0.75 cup orange juice
  • 0.5 cup lemon juice
  • 0.33333334326744 cup lime juice
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 0.5 cup soy sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon ground paprika
  • 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped canned chipotle pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 0.5 cup olive oil
  • 3 pounds flank steak

Instructions

  • Combine orange juice, lemon juice, and lime juice for marinade in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add cilantro, soy sauce, garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, black pepper, chipotle pepper, and oregano; stir to combine.
  • Slowly whisk in olive oil until well combined. Remove 1 cup of the marinade and place in a small bowl; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for use after the steak is cooked.
  • Place steak between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound steak with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
  • After pounding, poke steak all over with a fork. Place steak in the marinade in the large bowl, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
  • When ready to cook, preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove steak from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Cook steak on the preheated grill to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  • Remove steak from grill and slice across the grain.
  • Place on a serving platter and pour the reserved, unused marinade over top. Serve immediately.
