Superb steak is a great change from the ground hamburger taco...

½ tsp 

 

Kosher salt

 

½ tsp 

 

cayenne pepper

 

¼ tsp

2 cloves

3 cups

1

Combine 1 t. oil and next 5 ingredients in a bowl. Rub steaks with garlic-oil mixture; place in a large zip-top plastic bag. Seal; marinate in the refrigerator for at least one hour, or overnight.

Lightly spray rack of grill with cooking spray. Heat to medium high.

Place steak on grill, and cook 4 minutes on each side (only turning once), or until desired degree of doneness. Let stand for 10 minutes on a cutting board before slicing crosswise (against grain) into 1/3" thick slices.
