Spice Rubbed Flank Steak
IMG_5418

This flank steak was inspired by Mexican flavors for Cinco de Mayo tomorrow. The process of preparing and cooking of this flank steak is incredibly easy. You can make a fast spice rub and coat the steak early in the day, and when you pull it out just before dinner it will be packed with flavor!

A quick broil is all it will take to have that steak ready for dinner. I accompany the steak with all of the fixings for fajitas, and serve it family style so that everyone can help themselves!

If you are planning a Cinco de Mayo dinner, here are some recipes from the archives that may help round out your menu!
