Chipotle-Orange Flank Steak
1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from a can of chipotle in adobo
sauce), or to taste
1 chipotle chili pepper (from a can of chipotle in adobo sauce), seeded and
minced, or to taste
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
Zest from 1 orange
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2- to 2-pound flank steak
In a small bowl, whisk together the adobo, chipotle, brown sugar, orange juice
and zest, oil and salt. In a shallow dish just large enough to hold the steak,
combine the marinade and the steak, turning the steak once to coat both sides.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 8 hours.
Preheat the grill or broiler. Transfer the steak to the grill or broiler,
discarding the marinade, and cook, turning at least once to ensure even
browning, until the desired degree of doneness, about 12 minutes for
medium-rare, depending on the thickness.
