Ingredients

• 1 pound flank steak
• 0.5 cup soy sauce
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, olive oil, honey, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, ground black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it’s fully coated.

Step 3

Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 4

When ready to cook, preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting the excess drip off, and discard the marinade.

Step 5

Grill the steak for 5-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium, or as preferred.

Step 6

Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute for a tender steak.

Step 7

Slice the flank steak thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

Step 8

Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, a salad, or mashed potatoes.
