Ingredients
Directions
Marinade:10 cloves garlic, minced1/2 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon black pepper, cracked1 teaspoon oregano1 cup orange juice1 lime, juiced1/4 cup olive oil1 1/2 pounds (24 ounces) flank steak, trimmed of visible fatThis recipe is part of the e-book: "SparkPeople's Ultimate Grilling Guide: 75 Hearty, Healthy Recipes You Can Really Sink Your Teeth Into."
Pour all the marinade ingredients into a large plastic bag, then add the steak. Squeeze out any air, seal the bag, and place in a shallow dish to contain any leaks.
Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan to medium heat.
Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the marinade.
Grill, turning once, until the desired temperature is reached. For this large cut of meat, I recommend cooking to medium rare (135 degrees) and allowing the meat to rest for 5 minutes once taken off the grill to allow the juices to redistribute.
Off the grill, the meat will continue to cook slightly, raising the temperature to medium (140 degrees).
To serve, thinly slice against the grain.
Serving size is 3 ounces of cooked beef; makes six servings.
NOTE: The nutrition info is calculated for half the marinade as the other half is discarded.

I used the thin steaks cut for marinating. I used fresh squeezed orange juice and marinated for 6 hours. I saved some of the marinade, reduced it, and poured a couple of teaspoons on top of the finished steaks. I don't know how to do the calories for the topping, but it was delicious! - 3/1/12
