¼ cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons onion powder
3 tablespoons honey
3 whole green onions, coarsely chopped
4 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons garlic vinegar

1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder

Steps:

  • Score the flank steak by making shallow crisscross cuts on both sides.

Puree until smooth; pour mixture into a resealable plastic bag. Add the steak, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

SOUTHWESTERN FLANK STEAK MARINADE



Southwestern Flank Steak Marinade image

Use for flank or skirt steak (or meat of choice). Make sure that all surfaces of the meat have contact with the marinade. Allow to marinate up to 2 hours; cook as desired. I generally grill a flank steak for sandwiches or tacos when I'm feeling the need for something fun. It's got a Southwestern flair to it, but is still agreeable enough for my 4-year-old's palate. Or build a sandwich or some fajitas with some grilled onions and roasted red peppers... Delicious!

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs flank steaks
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium)
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons Bourbon
2 -3 teaspoons crumbled fresh rosemary (3/4 tsp dried)
3 -4 minced garlic cloves
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing across the grain

Tips:

  • Choose the right flank steak: Look for a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful after marinating.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what will give your flank steak its flavor, so be sure to choose one that you like. There are many different flank steak marinade recipes available, so you can find one that suits your taste.
  • Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes: The longer you marinate the steak, the more flavor it will absorb. However, you can marinate the steak for up to 24 hours if you want a really intense flavor.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: Flank steak is a thin cut of meat, so it cooks quickly. Be sure to cook it over high heat so that it doesn't become tough.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: Once you've cooked the steak, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Flank steak is a delicious and affordable cut of meat that can be easily marinated and cooked. By following these tips, you can make sure that your flank steak is tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give flank steak a try!
