Method
 

  1. Make marinade. Combine all ingredients except steak in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Pour over steak and cover. Refrigerate overnight, turning steak occasionally.
  2. Heat oil. Remove steak from refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking. Meanwhile heat oven to 425°F.
  3. Cook steak. Heat a grill pan or cast iron skillet large enough to fit the steak over medium-high heat. Once hot, place steak in pan and cook until dark grill marks have formed, about 5 minutes. Flip and transfer pan to oven. Finish cooking in oven until meat registers 130°F on a meat thermometer for medium-rare, about 5-8 minutes more. Check meat with the thermometer every 5 minutes or so and see the temperature chart above for desired doneness.
  4. Rest. Transfer meat to a cutting board, cover with foil and let meat rest 10 minutes before thinly slicing against the grain.

Notes

  1. Marinating: If you're short on time, marinating for at least 2 hours can still yield tender results. However, the longer it marinates, the more flavorful and tender the steak will be.
  2. Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness level, as cooking times may vary slightly depending on the thickness of the steak and your oven's temperature.
  3. Red wine: If you don't have red wine, you can substitute it with an equal amount of balsamic vinegar.
  4. Serving suggestions: This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as calabacitas, crock pot borracho beans or homemade flour tortillas.
