Ingredients
- 1 pound lean flank steak
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Step 3
Pour the marinade over the steak, making sure it is thoroughly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
Step 4
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 5
Remove the steak from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and discard the leftover marinade.
Step 6
Place the steak on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).
Step 7
Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes to retain its juices.
Step 8
Slice the steak thinly against the grain and serve immediately. Enjoy your heart-healthy meal!
