GRILLED FLANK STEAK MARINADE
This is a very easy, wonderful solution for flank steak. It is a salty, savory sauce that combines tenderness with flavor. Great for teenage boys and large gatherings. So easy that I prepare in morning and grill when I get home from work! Do not substitute the sesame oil, it is essential for the flavor.

Steps:
- Puree all marinade ingredients in blender until smooth, scraping down blender jar as needed. Place steak on rimmed baking sheet or in large baking dish. Using dinner fork, prick steak about 20 times on each side. Rub both sides of steak evenly with salt and then with paste. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours. Using large chimney starter, ignite about 6 quarts (1 large chimney, or 2 1/2 pounds) charcoal briquettes and burn until covered with thin coating of light gray ash, about 20 minutes. Empty coals into grill; build two-level fire by arranging coals to cover one half of grill. Position grill grate over coals, cover grill, and heat grate for 5 minutes; scrape grate clean with grill brush. Grill is ready when coals are hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above grate for just 2 seconds). Using paper towels, wipe paste off steak; season both sides with pepper. Grill steak directly over coals until well browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Using tongs, flip steak; grill until second side is well browned, 3 to 4 minutes. NOTE: I used a gas grill, which worked fine. Using paring knife, make small cut into thickest part of meat; if meat is slightly less done than desired, transfer steak to cutting board (meat will continue to cook as it rests). If steak is significantly underdone, position so that thinner side is over cool side of grill and thicker side is over hot side; continue to cook until thickest part is slightly less done than desired, then transfer steak to cutting board. Loosely tent steak with foil; let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Using sharp chef's knife or carving knife, slice steak about 1/4 inch thick against grain and on bias. Serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose the right flank steak: Look for a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick and has a nice marbling of fat. This will help ensure that the steak is tender and juicy after grilling.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what will give your flank steak its unique flavor. Be sure to use a marinade that contains a variety of herbs, spices, and liquids. Some popular marinade ingredients include olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and brown sugar.
- Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes: This will give the marinade time to penetrate the steak and flavor it throughout. If you don't have time to marinate the steak for 30 minutes, you can still marinate it for a shorter amount of time, but the flavor will not be as pronounced.
- Grill the steak over high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the steak and keep the inside juicy. Be sure to preheat your grill to high heat before grilling the steak.
- Cook the steak to your desired doneness: Flank steak is a relatively thin steak, so it cooks quickly. Be sure to cook the steak to your desired doneness, whether that is rare, medium-rare, or medium.
Conclusion:
Grilled flank steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. By following these tips, you can grill a flank steak that is tender, juicy, and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give grilled flank steak a try.
