  1. Begin by preparing the marinade. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper.

  2. Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag, then pour the marinade over the steak. Seal the bag and toss to coat the steak in the marinade.

  3. Refrigerate the steak and marinade for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.

  4. When you're ready to cook the arrachera, preheat your grill or grill pan to high heat.

  5. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard any excess marinade.

  6. Grill the steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for a more well-done steak.

  7. Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing it against the grain into thin strips.

  8. Serve the arrachera with warm tortillas, guacamole, pico de gallo, and any other toppings you desire.

Enjoy your delicious and flavorful arrachera!
