Ingredients

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2-3 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 teaspoons oregano dried
  • ½ teaspoon red chili flakes to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher sea salt

  • 1 lime juiced
  • Kosher sea salt to taste

Instructions

  • Place the steak in a large ziploc bag together with the oil, garlic, oregano, chili flakes, salt and pepper. Stir well through the bag and allow it to marinate for 1 hour in the fridge.

  • Grill the steak for 1-2 minutes per side, or until done to your liking.
  • Slice the steak and serve with pineapple salsa.

Notes

  • For a medium-rare steak, cook until the steak has an internal temperature of 130 degrees Fahrenheit to 140°F.
  • Add fresh parsley to the marinade mix for extra fresh flavors.
  • Use any kind of cooking oil in place of the olive oil.
  • Store any leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for four days.
  • Reheat the steak for steak and eggs, salads, omelets, sandwiches, etc.
