Ingredients

1 Flank Steak (about 9 to 12oz)

1 Tbsp Shawarma blend

1/4 cup Olive Oil

1/4 Lemon Juice

1 -2 Garlic (cloves, grated)

1 Small Onion (sliced)

Cilantro (garnish)

Method

In a mixing bowl add the olive oil, lemon juice and the onions. Mix well then add your meat, toss well and let marinade for min 30 minutes or for 2-3 hours in the refrigerator before grilling. Cook over the grill until desired finish is achieved and garnish with cilantro OR heat on a pan over high heat, and using your tongs, add the meat in. Spread the meat out so that as much of it is touching the hot surface as possible (and if you need to, do this in batches). Cook for 8 to 15 minutes, flipping and tossing occasionally (if you like less juice and for the meat to be more charred, you will likely go 15 minutes). Slice and serve or keep it whole if serving individual steaks.
