GRILLED FLANK STEAK WITH SHALLOT AND RED WINE SAUCE



Grilled Flank Steak with Shallot and Red Wine Sauce image

Provided by Amy Finley

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 shallots, sliced in thin rings
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup red wine
1 cup beef broth
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (1 1/2 pound) piece flank steak
1 tablespoon cold butter, in small chunks
Special Equipment: A grill or grill pan

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, saute the shallots in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until lightly caramelized, about 5 to 7 minutes. Raise the heat to high and add the red wine and reduce by half. Add the broth and reduce by half. Check for seasoning, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Keep warm on low heat.
  • Brush the flank steak on both sides with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with the salt and pepper. Place on the center of grill and sear 5 to 8 minutes per side for rare to medium rare, testing by pressing the meat with a finger: The spongier the meat feels, the rarer it is cooked. Remove from the grill and allow to rest, very loosely tented with aluminum foil, 5 to 10 minutes, to allow the juices to reabsorb into the meat. Slice the flank steak on the diagonal and place on a large platter. Finish the sauce by swirling in the chunks of cold butter, then top the steak with some of the sauce and serve the rest on the side.

GRILLED BALSAMIC AND SOY MARINATED FLANK STEAK



Grilled Balsamic and Soy Marinated Flank Steak image

Flank steak is a perfect grilling meat. It's marbleized with fat that melts while grilling and fills the meat with the flavor of natural juices. If you have a lot of marinade leftover from this recipe, save it in your refrigerator and use it to marinate other grilled meats or chicken; it will last up to one week.

½ onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
¼ cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon rosemary
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ pounds flank steak

Steps:

  • Whisk onion, garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, rosemary, salt, and pepper together in a mixing bowl.

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the flank steak from the marinade and shake to remove excess liquid. Reserve marinade.
  • Cook steak until firm, hot in the center, and just turning from pink to grey, 6 to 8 minutes per side, brushing occasionally with reserved marinade. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 150 degrees F (65 degrees C). Remove steak to a cutting board and rest meat 5 minutes before slicing thinly across the grain.

FLANK STEAK WITH LEMON SHALLOT MARINADE



Flank Steak With Lemon Shallot Marinade image

This is delicious! It uses Meyer lemons, which I love. If you cannot get Meyer lemons you can substitute 1-1/4 cup fresh lemon juice and 1/4 cup fresh orange juice. I made sandwiches with the leftovers that my kids really enjoyed. I put a little garlic butter on a roll and broiled it a little. Then put thinly sliced pieces of steak on the roll, top with swiss cheese and broiled until melted. From the cookbook Food To Live By.

Provided by Abby Girl

Categories     Steak

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 flank steak (or skirt steak)
1 shallot, roughly minced
6 garlic, roughly minced
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
2 teaspoons kosher salt
fresh black pepper

Steps:

  • Sprinikle the steak on both sides with 2 tsp kosher salt (or 1 tsp of table salt) Spread the marinade on both sides of the steak and refrigerate for 1 - 24 hours.
  • Heat grill for about 10 minutes. Clean and re-season the grill with olive oil.
  • With a papertowel, remove as much of the marinade as possible. (otherwise the garlic, shallot and rosemary would burn). Grind some fresh pepper over the steak.
  • Sear 4 - 6 minutes on the first side. Turn and cook 3 - 4 minutes on the other side. Watch carefully as it can burn quite easily. With a paring knife, cut a small slit in the middle and check for doneness. Move to a cooler part of the grill and continue until rare.
  • Remove from the grill while still pink -- cover with tinfoil and let sit for 5 minutes. (the steak will continue cooking while in the resting stage.
  • Cut the steak across the grain.

Tips

  • To save time, you can use a store-bought balsamic vinaigrette instead of making your own marinade.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the steak in a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • To check the doneness of the steak, use a meat thermometer. The steak is medium-rare at 135 degrees Fahrenheit, medium at 145 degrees Fahrenheit, and medium-well at 155 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing it. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion

Flank steak with balsamic shallot marinade is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The marinade tenderizes the steak and gives it a flavorful crust. The steak can be grilled, roasted, or pan-fried. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a salad.
