These were delicious! I marinated the steak for about 2 hours and then grilled them over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes per side. The steak was so tender and flavorful, and the chili lime cumin marinade was the perfect complement. I will defini

I made these for a party and they were a huge hit! Everyone loved them. I used flank steak instead of skirt steak and they turned out great. I also added some chopped red onion to the marinade and it gave them a nice extra flavor.

These are so easy to make and so delicious! I love that you can marinate the steak ahead of time, so you can have them ready to cook whenever you want. I've made them several times now and they're always a hit.

I love this recipe! The steak is always so tender and flavorful. I've made it several times now and it's always a hit. I usually serve it with rice and beans, but it would also be good with potatoes or salad.

These were amazing! I used a top sirloin steak and it was so tender and juicy. The marinade was perfect and gave the steak a great flavor. I will definitely be making these again.
