Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to get started. Fresh ingredients are always better.
- 1 pound steak
- 2 limes juiced or lime juice (about 4 tbsp)
- 4 small cloves of fresh garlic crushed or minced
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 jalapeno minced
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
The prep.
First, pre-cut steak into strips and place all the ingredients in a resealable plastic gallon bag. Make sure all the meat gets covered with the marinade. Let the bag sit for at least two hours or up to 12 hours in the fridge before cooking it.
Cooking
For pan cooking, you can pour the meat and marinade in the pan together and boil it off. When grilling, you want to pick the meat out of the marinade piece by piece. Then you’re going to want to periodically splash the leftover marinade on the steak as it’s cooking to keep it nice and moist.
