Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs flank steak

1/4 cup olive oil

3 tablespoons adobo sauce (from canned chipotles in adobo)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon ground cumin

1 tablespoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Juice of 2 limes

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Steak: In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, adobo sauce, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander, onion powder, salt, pepper, and lime juice until well combined. Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the steak. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.

    Preheat the Grill: When you're ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

      Grill the Steak: Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Place the flank steak on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare doneness, or to your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare.

        Rest the Steak: Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a tender bite.

          Slice and Serve: Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve alongside lime wedges for added flavor. Enjoy your homemade Chipotle-style steak in tacos, burritos, or on a salad!
