Printable page  

Few people realize that flank steak is one of the leanest cuts of beef. This recipe has flavor without the fat; and fat is a major culprit in creating heartburn. Guests will love it too.

GRILLED MARINATED FLANK STEAK

Makes 4 servings

¼ cup Balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons reduced sodium-soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 medium shallots, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons fresh chopped rosemary OR 1 teaspoon dried
1 ½ teaspoons dry mustard
1 ¼ pounds flank steak
Salt to taste

1. In a 13x9x 2-inch glass baking dish combine the vinegar, soy sauce, honey, shallots, rosemary, and mustard until combined, using a fork or whisk.
2. Place the steak on top, and press meat lightly to coat with marinade. Turn, and press again. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours turning occasionally.
3. Prepare grill to medium-hot coals, or medium setting, or preheat broiler. Remove the meat from marinade; discard marinade. Grill 4 to 6 minutes on each side (for medium-rare), or until desired doneness. Transfer steak to cutting board; sprinkle lightly with salt. Let stand for 5 minutes. Cut diagonally across the grain into thin slices. Arrange on a platter, and serve.
