Js Flank Steak Marinade Recipes

BALSAMIC MARINATED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Lightly score steak in a 1" diamond pattern, about ⅛" deep.
• Combine all marinade ingredients in a small bowl or freezer bag. Add steak and marinate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Remove the steak from the fridge at least 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
• Grill the steak 7-9 minutes, flip over, and grill an additional 5-7 minutes or until it reaches desired doneness. Do not overcook.
• Rest 10 minutes before slicing. Slice steak across the grain (cutting across the long fibers).

MARINATED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine garlic, mustard, honey, balsamic vinegar and beer. Stir in ginger. Place steak in baking pan and pour marinade over and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. Remove from pan and season with salt and pepper. Grill on barbecue or cast iron pan for 3 - 5 minutes per side depending on desired degree of doneness. Slice thinly and serve.

MUSTARD-MARINATED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Place the steak flat in a large nonreactive dish such as glass or porcelain. Using the tip of a sharp knife, lightly score the top of the steak diagonally in a large crisscross pattern to make what looks like 1-inch diamonds across the steak. This allows the marinade to penetrate into the meat.
• In a 2-cup measuring cup, whisk together the wine, olive oil, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the shallots and garlic. Pour the marinade over and under the steak until it's completely coated. Scatter the tarragon on top. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight.
• Half an hour before serving, remove the steak from the refrigerator and heat a charcoal grill with a layer of hot coals. (You can also set a gas grill on medium-high heat.) Sprinkle the steak with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Grill the steak for about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Place the steak on a clean plate, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice the steak thin, cutting diagonally across the grain. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot.

MARINATED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• In a shallow dish, whisk lemon juice, Worcestershire, mustard, 1 tablespoon olive oil, sugar, garlic, salt, and pepper.
• Pierce steak all over with a fork; toss in marinade. Marinate 30 minutes, turning once.
• In a cast-iron skillet, heat remaining tablespoon olive oil over high until smoking. Remove steak from marinade; cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Rest, covered, 5 minutes.
• In a saucepan, bring marinade to a boil; strain into serving dish.

FLANK STEAK MARINADE

Steps:

• Score the flank steak by making shallow crisscross cuts on both sides.
• Place the olive oil, light brown sugar, red wine, soy sauce, onion powder, honey, green onions, garlic cloves, garlic vinegar, ground ginger, and garlic powder in a blender. Puree until smooth; pour mixture into a resealable plastic bag. Add the steak, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Allow the flank steak to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. Remove the steak from the marinade, and shake off excess. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 10 minutes; set aside.
• Grill the steak on the preheated grill until it starts to firm, and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 7 minutes per side, basting often with the sterilized marinade. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
