Instructions
- For the sofrito: puree onion, bell peppers, cilantro and garlic in a food processor; add olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Spread 1 cup of the sofrito over the flank steak, working it into the scored crevices of the meat with your fingers; allow the meat to marinate for at least 30 minutes but 2-3 hours is best.
- Prepare grill or broiler; grill or broil the meat to the desired doneness, about 8 minutes per side for medium rare.
- Let stand 5 minutes then slice.
- Refrigerate or freeze the rest of the sofrito to use in another dish- it goes really well with sauteed chicken.
