INGREDIENTS
5 oz Flank Steak
1/2 cup Black Beans
2 tbsp Fresh Orange Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag and pour the citrus marinade over it. Ensure the steak is well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting any excess drip off.
Grill the flank steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time based on your preferred level of doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing against the grain.
While the steak is grilling, warm the black beans in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until heated through. Optionally, season with a touch of salt and pepper.
Slice the rested steak thinly and serve alongside a generous scoop of creamy black beans. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of fresh cilantro if desired.
