Grilled Marinated Flank Steak (with Chimichurri Sauce)

If the chimichurri sauce was good by itself, it was amazing with a deliciously marinated, perfectly grilled flank steak!

The steak we cooked was a little over a pound (the recipe called for a two-pound steak), but I forgot to halve the marinade. I actually think it worked out well, though - since it marinated for two days, the extra sauce made for an incredibly tender piece of meat.

I would absolutely make this again - maybe next week! ;-)



Ingredients:
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 C red wine vinegar
  • 3/4 C extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp. hot sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. lower sodium soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. honey
  • 1 Tbsp. steak seasoning
  • 1 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1.25 lb. beef flank steak
Method:
  1. In a gallon sized Ziploc bag, combine all marinade ingredients: garlic through cumin. Mix well.
  2. Add steak to the bag and marinate in the fridge for 2 hours or overnight. (Or for 2 days if it suites you.)
  3. When ready to cook, spray grill grate with cooking oil and preheat to medium.
  4. Grill steak for 8 to 10 minutes on each side or until desired doneness.
  5. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes.
  6. Cut meat across the grain into thin, slanting slices.
  7. Serve with chimichurri sauce.
