Ingredients

• 1 pound Flank steak
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 teaspoons Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 whole Lime wedges
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your broiler on high and position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heating element.

Step 2

Place the flank steak on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 3

Rub both sides of the steak with olive oil to coat it evenly.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Sprinkle the spice mixture over both sides of the flank steak, pressing it into the meat to ensure it adheres.

Step 6

Place the steak under the broiler and cook for 4 minutes on the first side.

Step 7

Flip the steak carefully and broil for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness (135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium).

Step 8

Remove the steak from the oven and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 9

Slice the steak thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness.

Step 10

Serve hot, drizzled with fresh lime juice and garnished with chopped cilantro, if desired.
