It’s got a marinade you’ll use over and over.
Do you remember that Superbowlad with the two lions?
For months after that aired, I couldn’t say “carne” without rolling the rrrrrrs.

Serve it up with tortillas, avocados, and salsa.
Reheat them on the stovetop by heating a little olive oil in a pan.
Add the slices, stirring once in a while, until heated through to 140F.

Or, reheat them in the air fryer at 350F.
Check every 3 minutes or so until they’re heated through to 140F.
Heat on high to sear and then lower the heat to finish cooking.

confirm to use your stove vent, searing the steak this way can smoke up the kitchen!
Rather than using pre-ground cumin, toast and grind whole cumin seeds if you have them.
Stir in the minced garlic, jalapeno, and cilantro.

Place the steak in the marinade and turn over a couple of times to coat thoroughly.
(you could also use a cast iron grill pan on high heat if cooking on the stovetop.)
Remove the steak from the marinade.

Lightly brush off most of the bits of cilantro and garlic (do not brush off the oil).
Place on the hot side of the grill.
The meat will continue to cook in its residual heat.
Place the steak on a cutting board, tent with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes.
Notice the direction of the grain of the meat and cut perpendicular to the grain.
Angle your knife so that your slices are wide and thin.
Serve withpico de gallo (fresh tomato salsa), chopped avocados, and other fixings.
