Citrus Marinated Flank Steak

This incredible recipe is from Dr. Jolene Brighten’s book Beyond the Pill.

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons avocado oil

• 2 tablespoons coconut aminos

• 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

• 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

• 3 cloves garlic, crushed

• 1/2 teaspoon real salt (pink salt, Redmond’s real salt, or Celtic sea salt are all good options)

• 1/2 teaspoon cumin

• 1 tsp chili powder

• 1 tsp dried oregano

• 1/4 tsp ground paprika

• 1/2 tsp dried thyme

• 1 lb grass-fed flank steak

Directions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil, coconut aminos, lime juice, apple cider vinegar, garlic, salt, cumin, chili powder, oregano, paprika, and thyme.

2. Place the steak into a shallow glass or another non-reactive dish. Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it is entirely coated. Cover the dish and place it in the refrigerator overnight (or 6-8 hours during the day).

3. When you’re ready to cook the meat, remove it from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes.

4. Set your pan or grill at high heat. When it’s hot, grill the meat for 4 minutes on each side.

5. Let the meat rest on a cutting board for at least 5 minutes before slicing it against the grain.

6. Pair with a green salad or roasted veggies to make it a balanced meal.
