ingredients
For the Steak
- 2 lbs Flank Steak
- 1 cup Oil
- juice from 4 Lime
- 1/2 cup Rice Vinegar
- 1 cup Fresh Cilantro loosely chopped
- 2 Tbsp Adobo Sauce

instructions
- Add steak to a large ziplock bag with oil, lime juice, rice vinegar, cilantro, adobo sauce, chipotle peppers, salt, and black pepper.
- Turn the steak to coat in the marinade evenly. Let side in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
- Heat grill (or grill pan) to medium-high heat.
- Remove steak from marinade and grill until desired doneness. I recommend about 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare.
- Remove steak from heat and let rest 15 minutes before slicing.
- While the steak is resting, add all ingredients for avocado salsa to a food processor or blender. Pulse until combined.
- Serve steak immediately with avocado salsa.
