Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 cloves minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chipotle powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Add the orange juice, lime juice, and olive oil to a blender or bowl; if using a blender, pulse on low for 5 seconds to begin the emulsion.
  2. Add the minced garlic, chopped cilantro, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chipotle powder, kosher salt, and cracked black pepper to the mixture.
  3. Blend or whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and the oil is fully incorporated into the citrus juices.
  4. Pour the marinade over 1½ lb (680g) of skirt steak or flank steak in a glass dish or seal in a plastic bag, ensuring the liquid coats every surface.
  5. Place the meat in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
