- 1 1/2 pounds steak (use flank if grilling, cubed sirloin if in oven)
- Juice of 2 large limes (or 4 tbsp lime juice)
- Zest of 1 large lime
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Olive oil
Instructions
- Make marinade of the above ingredients. Add a little olive oil if rub is too thick
- Rub the steak with the spice mixture (if using cubed meat, put meat in a ziplock bag, pour the marinade in, seal the bag and massage to coat
- If grilling, preheat grill to high heat. Lightly coat a paper towel with oil and, holding it with long tongs, carefully rub the oiled towel over the grill rack. Place steak directly on the grill and cook for 5 minutes on each side. Remove from grill and let the steak rest on a cutting board, covered with foil, for 10 minutes.
- If baking in oven, lay meat in an even layer on a large metal pan. Cook for 10-12 minutes at 400. If desired add sliced bell peppers and onion, making sure to get some of the pan juices on the veggies. Cook for another 10 minutes. When done, use a slotted spoon to remove meat and veggies from pan and put in a serving dish.
