Wheat Free Paleo Flank Steak with Herb & Citrus Marinade

Flank steak gets a serious upgrade here, bathed in a bright, punchy marinade built from coconut aminos, fresh orange and lime juice, smoked paprika, cumin, and garlic. Coconut aminos stand in beautifully for soy sauce, delivering that savory depth without any wheat or gluten hiding in the bottle — a swap that makes a real difference when you're navigating ingredient labels. The citrus and spice work into the meat over a long marinade, so by the time the steak hits a screaming-hot cast iron pan, you're already most of the way to something spectacular. That hard sear creates a deep, caramelized crust that locks in all those bold flavors before the steak even gets to rest. The smart move of reserving a portion of the marinade before it ever touches raw meat means you finish the dish with a drizzle of fresh, vibrant sauce — no extra work required. Sliced thin against the grain and fanned out on a board with lime wedges, this is the kind of meal that looks like you really know what you're doing.
