MUSTARD-MARINATED FLANK STEAK



Mustard-Marinated Flank Steak image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h40m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 flank steak (2 to 2 1/2 pounds)
1/3 cup dry white wine
1/3 cup good olive oil
1/3 cup Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup chopped shallots (2 shallots)
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh tarragon leaves

Steps:

  • Place the steak flat in a large nonreactive dish such as glass or porcelain. Using the tip of a sharp knife, lightly score the top of the steak diagonally in a large crisscross pattern to make what looks like 1-inch diamonds across the steak. This allows the marinade to penetrate into the meat.
  • In a 2-cup measuring cup, whisk together the wine, olive oil, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the shallots and garlic. Pour the marinade over and under the steak until it's completely coated. Scatter the tarragon on top. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight.
  • Half an hour before serving, remove the steak from the refrigerator and heat a charcoal grill with a layer of hot coals. (You can also set a gas grill on medium-high heat.) Sprinkle the steak with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Grill the steak for about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Place the steak on a clean plate, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice the steak thin, cutting diagonally across the grain. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot.

GRILLED MARINATED FLANK STEAK



Grilled Marinated Flank Steak image

Flank steak, a flavorful yet affordable cut of beef, gets a salty-sweet boost from Michael Ruhlman's wonderful marinade. It also gives the meat a nice charred flavor, with or without an outdoor grill: as the marinade caramelizes, it creates aromatic smoke that infuses the meat, right in the hot pan. (Note: Allow 8 hours to fully marinate the steak.)

Provided by Michael Ruhlman

Categories     main-dish

Time 10h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup light or dark brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
3 cloves garlic
1 1/2 pounds flank steak
Cherry tomatoes, for garnish
Greens, for garnish, such as watercress or arugula

Steps:

  • Marinade: Into a zip-top bag, add ketchup, soy sauce, brown sugar, onion powder, ground ginger, and Worcestershire sauce. Trim away the root end of garlic cloves, smash with the flat side of a knife, and discard the peel. Smash again, then roughly chop and add to the bag. Close the bag and mix the marinade. Makes about 1¼ cups. (Marinade will keep for up to 1 week in the refrigerator and up to 1 month in the freezer.)
  • Steak: Place steak into the bag with the marinade. Press out as much air as possible, seal the bag, and distribute the marinade around the meat. Let marinate for at least 1 hour at room temperature or, optimally, up to 8 hours to overnight in the refrigerator. (Note: If grilling after 1 hour of marinating, reserve the marinade to baste the steak during grilling.)
  • If the steak has been marinating in the refrigerator, bring it to room temperature before grilling, about 1 hour.Preheat grill pan (or outdoor grill) to medium-high heat. When grill pan is smoking hot, remove steak from marinade and lay it flat on the grill. Let cook for 4-5 minutes, largely undisturbed, pressing down on the meat to enhance grill marks if you wish. After 4-5 minutes, the steak should be lightly charred and no longer adhere to the grill. Lift and rotate steak about 60 degrees to create cross-hatched grill marks; let cook another 2-3 minutes. Finally, flip and repeat process on the other side, 7-8 minutes. (Total grilling time will be 15-16 minutes.)
  • After 15-16 minutes, steak should be medium-rare. Meat should feel firm to the touch at the thickest part (alternatively, a meat thermometer should register 125 F at the thickest part of the steak). Transfer steak to a wire rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet. Let rest to allow the juices to redistribute in the steak, 15 minutes.
  • After the steak has rested, transfer to a cutting board. Find the grain of the meat, then thinly slice against the grain on a bias. Garnish with cherry tomatoes and greens, and serve immediately.

ASIAN MARINATED FLANK STEAK

I originally got the idea for this out of Sunset Magazine, and have tweaked it to suit my family and friends. It makes a great OAMC entree for the grill, or to take camping. I've used this on chicken and salmon as well as beef, just reducing the marinating time appropriately. Don't use ground (dry) ginger in this- the flavor is not the same.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of steak: Flank steak is a lean, flavorful cut that is perfect for marinating. Look for a steak that is about 1 inch thick and has a good amount of marbling.
  • Prepare the marinade: The marinade is what will give your steak its flavor, so take the time to make a good one. This recipe uses a simple marinade made with olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and black pepper. You can also add other ingredients to your marinade, such as herbs, spices, or citrus juice.
  • Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes: The longer you marinate the steak, the more flavor it will absorb. If you don't have time to marinate the steak for 30 minutes, you can marinate it for as little as 15 minutes. However, the longer you marinate it, the better.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: Flank steak is a thin cut of steak, so it cooks quickly. Cook the steak over high heat for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and juicy.

Conclusion:

Marinated flank steak is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The marinade tenderizes the steak and gives it a flavorful crust. The steak can be cooked in a variety of ways, including grilling, pan-frying, or broiling. Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
