How to Make Fajita Steak Marinade

  1. Combine all marinade ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
  2. Place steaks in a large, resealable casserole dish. Pour marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight, flipping the steaks at least once.
  3. Preheat your grill to high heat. For charcoal grills, ensure you have a bed of hot coals.
  4. Grill steaks for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired internal temperature (approximately 130-135°F for medium-rare).
  5. Remove steaks from grill, let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain and serving immediately.
