Enjoy a Mexican favorite made on the grill. The flank steak marinates in a zesty rub with a slight kick for added flavor. You can also mix the marinade in a zip-lock plastic freezer bag and refrigerate for an easy clean up. Be careful not to overcook the steak. Flank steak can get tough if cooked too long. Alternately, you can stir-fry the onions and peppers on the stove. You can also serve this dish over a bed of lettuce for a delicious fajita salad. You could also use this marinade for grilled chicken or shrimp and serve the same way.
