Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds flank steak
• 0.5 cups soy sauce
• 0.25 cups olive oil
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoons dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, olive oil, honey, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, ground black pepper, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes to make 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 is evenly coated.

Step 3

Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to infuse.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to high heat (around 450–500°F) and oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Remove the steak from the marinade, letting any excess liquid drip off. Discard the marinade.

Step 6

Place the steak on the grill and cook for 5–7 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the steak and your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 130°F for medium-rare or 140°F for medium.

Step 7

Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 5–10 minutes to redistribute the juices.

Step 8

Slice the steak thinly against the grain and serve immediately, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
