A flavorful and juicy grilled steak recipe with a zesty citrus marinade.
In a large ziploc bag, combine the beer, oregano, cumin, sugar, minced garlic, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and the juice of the orange.
Crushing the oregano between your palms releases its essential oils, enhancing the flavor.
Add the flank steak to the bag, seal it, and ensure the marinade coats the steak evenly.
Massage the bag gently to distribute the marinade evenly over the steak.
Refrigerate the steak in the marinade for at least 1 hour, turning the bag occasionally.
For deeper flavor, marinate the steak overnight.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Remove the steak from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for your desired doneness.
Let the steak rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing it against the grain into thin strips.
Resting the steak allows the juices to redistribute, keeping it tender.
Serve the steak with warm tortillas, guacamole, salsa, and your favorite sides.
Warm the tortillas on the grill for added flavor.
