Marinated Flank Steak

Ingredients

• 1 tsp black peppercorns
• 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1 fl oz lime juice
• 1 tsp cumin seed
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 16 oz flank steak

Directions

1. Grind peppercorns and cumin seeds (in mortar and pestle, coffee grinder, Magic bullet or use pre-ground if you have too.)
2. Combine remaining ingredients in blender. Blend well and pour over flank steak in ziploc bag.
3. Allow to marinate at least 3 hours (preferably overnight).
4. Pre-heat grill to medium-high heat. Oil the grate to prevent sticking.
5. Remove meat from marinade and discard marinade and juices. Grill meat for about 5 minutes per side, or until you achieve desired doneness.
6. Note: if you like your meat a bit on the rare side, try this method. Heat grill to as high as it will go (850 °F (450 °C) ). Throw the meat on for 90-120 seconds. Flip and cook for another 90-120 seconds. Now turn of all the heat and allow to cook for another 4-6 minutes. If your flank has a thicker middle; pound out the meat to a consistent thickness so that everything cooks to the same doneness.
