1)Put everything but meat into food processor and roughly chop.
2)Place meat and processed ingredients into zip-lock bag.
3) Marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator. If refrigerated, take in out 30 minutes before grilling.
4) Grill with high heat. Allow meat to rest 5 minutes before cutting.
This is the answer, but I use more tequila and salt. I have a marinade recipe that calls for citrus juice -- lime or orange, or both. Definitely marinade overnight. You don't need to do the sizzle in the skillet thing. It's just for show, and why the restaurants add butter -- to keep the meat from drying out when they do that.
