Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- 1/2 beer any beer you like
- 2-4 tbsp Homemade adobo (see recipes for my recipe) I don't really measure this I use my heart and shake it on lol
- 2 lbs Flank Steak
- 1 tsp extra cumin if you'd like Optional
- 1 tsp Chili Powder If you want spice, but I usually pair with hot sauce or a spicy jalapeño
Instructions
-
Cut your steak to even thickness on all pieces
-
Add to a bowl with your beer and olive oil and then add your adobo and additional spices if you'd like.
-
Let sit for 20 mins to 2 hours before cooking (great time to make your rice, tortillas and beans)
-
Get a hot grill ready, griddle, or pan and sear the steak for 5-7 mins on each side depending on your level of doneness you prefer and the thickness of your steak.
-
Slice it up against the grain and enjoy!
