Chili-Lime Marinade

I make this up and freeze my steaks in the marinade.  Mark with the ingredients/recipe, take out of the freezer and it marinades while it thaws!  Now all you need to do is make some side dishes and veggies and you're set for dinner!

Marinade quantity for 2 flank steaks: 


1/2 - 3/4 cup Olive oil
1/2-3/4 cup red wine (I used Merlot)
1-1/2 T Chili-Lime rub (Pampered Chef)
1/4 C Lime Juice
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground cumin.

Optional: More chili powder, lime juice to taste.

Mix together with wisk, add more "bite" as desired. Divide between steaks (in freezer zip-loc bags). Freeze or marinade up to 8 hours.  Broil or grill as usual.
