Prepare the Gorditas

  2. Rub the mixture onto the flank steak and let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  3. Grill the steak over medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes per side or until desired doneness.
  4. Remove from grill, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
Assemble the Gorditas

  2. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, cheese, and jalapeños if desired.
