Steps:
- Put steak in a large resealable plastic bag. Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Reserve 1/2 cup marinade for vegetables; pour remainder over steak and turn to coat. Seal bag. Chill at least 2 hours or up to 12 hours.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place 1 rack in center position and another 4 inches from broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Toss chickpeas, tomatoes, cucumber, and onion with reserved 1/2 cup marinade on the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer.
- Roast on center rack until vegetables begin to pucker and brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove baking sheet from oven and turn oven to broil. Push vegetables to the middle of the pan. Remove steak from marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off, brush off garlic, and set on top of vegetables. Discard marinade.
- Broil steak on top rack, flipping once, until it begins to char and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 125 degrees F for rare or 135 degrees F for medium-rare, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
- Cover loosely with foil and let rest 10 minutes before slicing steak thinly across the grain. Serve warm steak and vegetables with pan juices over romaine, sprinkled with feta cheese and parsley.

STEAK SALAD WITH GOAT CHEESE
Feta and gorgonzola are two other cheeses you could try with this salad. Their flavors stand up to the steak, and, like goat cheese, they have the right texture for crumbling.

Tips:
- Choose the right flank steak: Look for a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick and has a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. Be sure to marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Cook the steak over high heat: Flank steak is best cooked over high heat so that it can quickly sear on the outside and remain tender on the inside. Cook the steak for 3-5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
- Let the steak rest: After cooking, let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Flank steak is a versatile steak that can be served with a variety of sides. Some popular sides include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.

Flank steak is a delicious and affordable cut of meat that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can cook a perfect flank steak every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, be sure to give flank steak a try!
