Almond Free Paleo Flank Steak with Herb & Citrus Marinade

Bold, smoky, and bright with citrus, this flank steak is the kind of weeknight dinner that feels like it belongs at a restaurant. The marinade layers coconut aminos with fresh orange and lime juice, garlic, cumin, and smoked paprika into something genuinely complex — and it all comes together in a bowl before the steak even hits the pan. Because every ingredient here is naturally whole and unprocessed, there's no need to scan labels for hidden nut-based oils or additives that can sneak into store-bought marinades and spice blends. The trick of reserving a few tablespoons of marinade before it touches raw meat means you get a punchy finishing drizzle that ties every slice together. Searing in a cast iron skillet over high heat builds that deep, caramelized crust that makes flank steak so satisfying, while a short rest keeps the interior juicy and tender. Sliced thin against the grain and finished with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lime, this is clean eating that genuinely doesn't taste like a compromise.
