Gelatin Free Paleo Flank Steak with Herb & Citrus Marinade

Bright citrus, smoky paprika, and a hit of garlic come together in a marinade that transforms flank steak into something genuinely crave-worthy. Coconut aminos stand in for soy sauce, bringing a savory depth without any of the additives you'd find in conventional bottled sauces, and fresh orange and lime juice keep everything vibrant and clean. The longer you let the steak soak — up to eight hours — the more those flavors work their way into every fiber of the meat. Searing in a screaming-hot cast iron skillet builds a deep, caramelized crust that locks in all that juicy goodness underneath. A smart move in the instructions has you reserving a portion of the marinade before it ever touches raw meat, so you get a punchy finishing drizzle right at the table without any food safety worries. Sliced thin against the grain and fanned out with lime wedges and fresh parsley, this is the kind of dish that looks like you put in way more effort than you actually did. It's naturally free of any animal-derived thickeners or gelling agents, so every component on the plate is exactly what it appears to be.
