A flavorful and juicy grilled steak marinated in a zesty chipotle lime mixture, perfect for a summer barbecue.
Combine all marinade ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk until well blended.
Ensure the marinade is well mixed to evenly coat the steak.
Place the flank steak in a zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Marinating overnight allows the flavors to deeply penetrate the meat.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry.
Drying the steak ensures a good sear on the grill.
Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for accuracy.
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest under aluminum foil for 10 minutes.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the steak more tender.
Slice the steak against the grain into thin slices and serve with your favorite sides.
Slicing against the grain ensures the steak is tender and easy to chew.
