Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds flank steak
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 pounds red potatoes, small to medium
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup romaine lettuce, chopped
• 0.25 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (for potatoes)
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper (for seasoning potatoes)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, olive oil, brown sugar, minced garlic, lime juice, and black pepper. Pour the marinade into a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and add the flank steak. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight for deeper flavor.

Step 2

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). While the grill heats, start preparing the BLT smashed potatoes.

Step 3

Place the red potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and set them aside.

Step 4

Add the marinated flank steak to the preheated grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer according to your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain into thin strips.

Step 5

While the steak rests, finish the smashed potatoes. In the pot used for boiling, return the potatoes and gently smash them with a potato masher or the back of a fork. Add the butter and sour cream, stirring to combine.

Step 6

Mix in the crispy bacon, cherry tomatoes, and chopped lettuce into the smashed potatoes. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with chopped chives, plus a pinch of black pepper for seasoning. Stir gently to combine.

Step 7

Serve the grilled flank steak alongside the BLT smashed potatoes. Garnish with additional chives if desired. Enjoy this flavorful and hearty dish!
