Time 17h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

⅓ cup canola oil
⅓ cup distilled white vinegar
⅓ cup fresh lime juice
⅓ cup fresh orange juice
4 teaspoons garlic, minced
3 tablespoons jalapeño, minced
¼ cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped, plus whole leaves for serving
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 lb flank steak
8 white corn tortillas, 5 inch (12.5 cm)
pico de gallo, for serving
guacamole, for serving
sour cream, for serving
cotija cheese, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, lime juice, orange juice, garlic, jalapeño, chopped cilantro, salt, coriander, cumin, pepper, and chili powder.
  • Place the steak in a gallon-size resealable bag. Pour in 1 cup (240 ml) of the marinade and set the rest aside. Seal the bag and shake to evenly coat the steak in the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours.
  • In a small saucepan, bring the reserved ½ cup (120 ml) of marinade to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until thickened and reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Heat a large grill pan over high heat until very hot. Remove the steak from the bag and discard the marinade. Cook the steak on 1 side until there are dark grill marks and it is beginning to caramelize around the edges, about 6 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side for 5 minutes for medium rare, or 7 minutes for medium. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Working in batches, heat the corn tortillas in a pan over medium-high heat, turning with tongs, until softened and just beginning to brown in spots, about 1 minute per side. Wrap the toasted tortillas in foil to keep warm.
  • Thinly slice the steak against the grain, then cut the slices in half. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the reduced marinade to coat.
  • Serve the steak with the warm tortillas, pico de gallo, guacamole, sour cream, cotija cheese, and cilantro leaves, if desired.
  • Enjoy!

1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
