Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb Flank Steak

For the Marinade:

  • ½ cup EVOO
  • ½ cup Red Cooking Wine
  • Juice from 1 Lime
  • 1 Tbs Chili Powder
  • 2 teaspoon Cumin
  • 2 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Sea Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Pepper

For the Avocado Corn Salsa:

  • 4 ears of Corn
  • 2 Avocados pitted skinned, and chopped
  • ¼ cup Red Onion finely chopped
  • 1 Jalapeño finely chopped
  • Zest and Juice from 2 Limes
  • ¼ cup Cilantro chopped
  • Sea Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Add all ingredients for the marinade into a ziplock bag along with the Steak
  • Seal and refrigerate 30 minutes to 8 hours (the longer you marinate the more tender and flavorful it will be)
  • After marinating bring steak to room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling
  • Now go ahead and make the salsa
  • Remove Corn Kernels from the cob with a knife and place in a large bowl
  • Add all of the remaining salsa ingredients and stir.
  • Taste and add more Salt or Pepper to your liking
  • Heat grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Grill Steak 5-7 minutes each side or until internal temp is 135F for medium rare (see notes)
  • Remove from grill and place on a platter or cutting board to rest for 5 minutes
  • Cut up Steak, serve on Corn Tortillas and top with Avocado Corn Salsa
  • Enjoy!

Notes

If you don't like your steak medium rare, just cook a little longer. See cooking temps below, also note it depends on the thickness of your steak to how many minutes to cook on each side. I find it helpful to use a good digital thermometer to test the doneness.
  • 120 - 130 degrees F = Rare
  • 130 - 140 degrees F = Medium Rare
  • 140 - 150 degrees F = Medium
  • 160 - 170 degrees F = Well Done
