Ina Garten Flank Steak Recipe

Ina Garten Flank Steak recipe

Flank steak is a lean and flavorful cut of beef, often used for grilling or broiling. Ina Garten’s recipe enhances its natural flavors with a delicious marinade, ensuring the steak stays tender and juicy when cooked.

Ingredients

  • Flank steak – 2 pounds
  • Soy sauce – ½ cup
  • Olive oil – ⅓ cup
  • Red wine vinegar – 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic – 4 cloves, minced
  • Fresh rosemary – 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Fresh thyme – 1 tablespoon, chopped
  • Honey – 1 tablespoon
  • Kosher salt – 1 teaspoon
  • Freshly ground black pepper – ½ teaspoon

Instructions

Prepare the Marinade

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, honey, salt, and pepper.

Marinate the Steak

  • Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
  • Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it’s fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.

Preheat the Grill or Broiler

  • Remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes.
  • Preheat a grill to medium-high heat or set the broiler to high.

Cook the Flank Steak

  • Remove the steak from the marinade and shake off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Grill or broil the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time based on your desired level of doneness.

Rest the Steak

  • Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute for a tender result.

Slice and Serve

  • Slice the flank steak thinly against the grain. Serve warm with your favorite sides or use it in salads, tacos, or sandwiches.
