DIRECTIONS

1. Mix ingredients together and pour over flank steak. Marinate in the fridge for 2 hours. Pull out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.
2. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place all the ingredients (except salt and cilantro) on the sheet. Place under the broiler for 3-5 minutes (flipping over once, depending on how quickly the vegetables are charring on both sides).
3. Remove pan from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. In a food processor or blender, pulse all the charred vegetables (adding salt and cilantro until desired consistency).
4. Cook marinated steak over charcoal for 8-10 minutes (flipping every 2 minutes) or until it hits desired temp.
5. Let rest for 10 minutes after cooking.
6. Cut and serve immediately over freshly charred corn tortillas.
