Southwest Marinated Flank Steak

This recipe came from the flank steak package. It wasn’t too bad, but I don’t think we’ll probably be repeating this recipe. I’m posting it just in case one of my three readers might enjoy it more than we did 🙂 I used closer to ⅓ cup lime juice (about 3 limes) rather than ½ cup, and I didn’t bother to reserve any of the marinade for basting. The recipe recommended serving with grilled bell peppers, but I didn’t have any on hand. I served it with roasted broccoli and mushrooms sautéed with some garlic, salt, and black pepper. My version of the flank steak is below.

Southwest Marinated Flank Steak
Serves 4

1 beef flank steak (about 2 lbs)

For the marinade:
½ cup Italian Dressing
⅓ cup fresh lime juice
1 tbsp honey
½ tsp cumin

Mix together the marinade ingredients in a zip top bag. Add the beef and marinate for 8 hours.

Preheat frill to medium heat. Remove steak from marinade and grill for about 15 minute total, turning halfway through. Let meat rest for 10 minutes, then slice across the grain and serve.
