Margaritaville Steak

2 flank steaks
Marinade
2 tsp grated lime zest
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup tequila
1 T chopped garlic
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp dried oregano
Pepper

For the marinade, whisk all ingredients together. Use a small sharp knife or fork to pierce the meat all over. Pour the marinade into a large glass baking dish or 2 resealable plastic bags, and add the meat, seal the bags and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.

Preheat grill - to medium high. Take the steak from the marinade, let the excess drip off and discard the marinade. Grill steaks to medium rare, about 4 minutes per side, or longer to suit your taste. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes with foil to keep warm. To serve, slice thinly on a diagonal.
