Father’s Day Flank Steak

father's day flank steak

My dad loves this recipe! And he loves it all the more since on Father’s Day we take over the grill 

Flank steak is a lean, relatively tough cut of beef, but the tenderizing effects of a tasty marinade make it delicious. When flank steak is marinated , cooked quickly at high heat, and thinly sliced, it practically melts in your mouth. Fast, easy and delicious!

INGREDIENTS

2-pound flank steak, with fat trimmed

Marinade

1/4 cup soy sauce (low-sodium, if preferred)
4 tablespoons honey
1/3 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
4 to 5 sprigs fresh thyme
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Kosher or sea salt to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

In a bowl, whisk the marinade ingredients (except salt and pepper) in a bowl.

Put steak and marinade into a large zip-lock plastic bag and toss to coat steak well.

Refrigerate at least 2 hours. 

Prepare grill (or broiler) to medium-high.

Remove steak from the marinade and shake off excess.

Grill or broil 4-6 minutes per side for medium rare (note: this cut of meat tastes best medium rare). Cooking time varies by thickness of the steak.

Remove from heat; season to taste with salt and pepper.

Let rest 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Best cut at an angle across the grain into thin slices.

Serve and enjoy.
