Ingredients

  • =
  • 2 1/2 lbs lean flank steak, cut into 1/4 inch slices
  • 2 teaspoons ground oregano

Directions

1

Place all ingredients in a plastic zipper bag and refrigerate overnight.

2

The next day, if using your oven to dry, cover your oven racks with foil and preheat oven to 180 degrees F.

3

Transfer drained meat to baking racks and dry for approximately 6 hours; depending on how thick the meat slices are, drying could take between 5 and 7 hours.

4

Be sure to place a couple of potholders in the oven door to keep it slightly ajar so moisture can escape and the meat can dry more thoroughly.
