In a medium sized bowl, combine cilantro, olive oil, soy sauce, orange juice, lime juice, garlic, jalapeno, cumin and pepper; set aside 1/2 cup of the mixture in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
In a large bowl, combine steak and remaining cilantro mixture; marinate for 6-24 hours, turning in the bowl occasionally. Drain the steak from the marinade.
Preheat grill to medium high heat. Using paper towels, pat both sides of the steak dry; season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add steak to grill, and cook, flipping once, until desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Let rest 5 minutes.
Thinly slice steak against the grain and serve with reserved cilantro mixture.
