ORANGE-GLAZED FLANK STEAK



Orange-Glazed Flank Steak image

My friend call this her "go to" recipe for entertaining for good reason. You prepare the marinade the night before and the glaze early on the day before you serve it. Leaves you with a great meal and time to mingle. Cut the recipe in half and use only one 2 lb. steak or two 1 pound steaks. Other steak cuts work well, too. I serve this with either Recipe #16870 or Recipe #292772. From Gourmet Magazine via the food network site.

FLANK STEAK WITH CHIMICHURRI SAUCE



Flank Steak with Chimichurri Sauce image

The hallmarks to perfect grilled steaks are a great charred crust with some grill marks, seasoning generously and nailing the temperature (doneness). Always consider the thickness of the steak when cooking, knowing the thicker the steak, the longer the cook time (see the Cook's Note below). Chimichurri is a great sauce to know because it belongs to a group of uncooked condiments that touch so many cultures and dishes. If you can make chimichurri, you can make salsa verde and pesto. A rule of thumb is chimichurri is herbal, salsa verde is acidic and pesto is nutty. Choose the right sauce to pair perfectly with your protein or vegetable. Flank steak is a heavily used muscle but will grill amazingly. It's pleasantly chewy with great flavor.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup (60 g) packed fresh parsley
3 tablespoons (8 g) chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/2 cup (120 ml) olive oil
1/4 cup (60 ml) red wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon Maldon sea salt
2 pounds (910 g) flank steak
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
1 tablespoon (15 ml) soy sauce
1 large red onion, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick (1.3-cm) rings
Vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray, for greasing

Steps:

  • Make the chimichurri sauce: Add all the sauce ingredients to a small food processor. Pulse 4 to 6 times, until the herbs are roughly chopped and chunky. Transfer to a serving bowl.
  • Cook the steak: Pat the flank steak dry with a paper towel. Season generously with salt and a pinch of ground pepper. Place in a medium bowl and drizzle with the olive oil and soy sauce. Add the onion to the bowl and give it all a massage until combined.
  • Heat a grill to high for at least 5 minutes. If using a charcoal or gas grill, wipe the grill grates with a lightly oiled paper towel right before cooking to clean off any char and debris. This will give you a great grill mark and help keep the beef from sticking. Alternatively, place a grill pan over high heat and preheat for at least 5 minutes. Rub a little oil on the pan or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Grill the steak for about 3 minutes, or until well browned on one side. Turn the steak over and add the onion to the grill. Cook for another 2 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 125 degrees F (52 degrees C) for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness (see Cook's Note). You just want the onions slightly charred but still crunchy. Transfer the steak and onions to a cutting board and allow to rest, tented with foil, for 5 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain into 1-inch (2.5-cm) planks. Serve the steak over the onions and drizzle with the chimichurri sauce.

Grilled Flank Steak with Olive and Herb Sauce image

This flank steak can be served either warm or at room temperature. We suggest setting out a basket of thinly sliced rustic bread, so guests can make sandwiches if they like.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 flank steaks (3 1/2 to 4 pounds total)
2 tablespoons plus 2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
6 ounces mixed pitted brine-cured olives, chopped (1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup chopped peperoncini, plus 1/3 cup reserved juice
2/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, plus 3 tablespoons finely chopped parsley stems (from 1 small bunch)

Steps:

  • Let steaks sit at room temperature 1 hour. Heat grill to medium-high. Pat steaks dry. Brush with 2 tablespoons oil, and season liberally with salt and pepper. Grill 7 to 8 minutes per side (or until internal temperature reaches 135 degrees) for medium-rare. Let steaks rest, loosely tented with foil, 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix together olives, peperoncini and their juice, parsley leaves and stems, oregano, and remaining 2/3 cup oil. Sauce can be made 1 day in advance and refrigerated; bring to room temperature before serving.
  • Thinly slice steaks against the grain; arrange on a platter. Spoon half the sauce on top; serve remaining sauce on the side.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the flank steak against the grain. This will help tenderize the meat and make it more flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the flank steak. It should be cooked to medium-rare or medium, otherwise it will become tough.
  • If you don't have orange juice on hand, you can substitute another citrus juice, such as lemon or grapefruit juice.
  • Be sure to taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Serve the flank steak with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Flank steak with orange sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The flank steak is tender and flavorful, and the orange sauce is a perfect complement. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
