Ingredients

  • 2 pounds flank steak
  • 1 bunch cilantro
  • 3 limes, juiced
  • 3 green onions
  • 2 fresh jalapeños, deseeded
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 3 tomatillos, outer paper removed
  • 1⁄4 cup oil
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt 

Directions

  1. In a blender add all the marinated ingredients and blend until smooth.
  2. Pour marinate over meat and fully coat all the meat with the marinade. Marinate for 2-24 hours.

Cooking Directions

Grill: Preheat your grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Oil the grill grates well. Add the steak to the grill, and cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 135 Fahrenheit. Allow the steak to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.


Notes

How to Freeze: Add the steak and marinade to a gallon-sized freezer ziplock bag. Remove as much air as you can, then seal the bag. Flatten the bag so the chicken is in a single layer. Place in the freezer and use it within 3-4 months for best results.

How to Defrost: Place the chicken on a plate in the refrigerator overnight and then cook with your preferred cooking method, see above.
