SWEET AND SPICY GRILLED FLANK STEAK



Sweet and Spicy Grilled Flank Steak image

There are some steaks that need nothing more than a little salt and pepper to bring out their beefy goodness. Flank steak is not one of them. This bold marinade is just the sort of seasoning the brawny cut begs for: lime juice and zest add brightness, brown sugar sweetness, and jalapeño and sriracha a complex heat. Just whiz it all together in a food processor and slather it on the meat. Marinate overnight (or 20 minutes if that's all the time you have) before tossing it on the grill. Lastly, always make more flank steak that you think you want. Leftovers are the best part.

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons coarsely chopped scallions
1 tablespoon peeled and finely chopped ginger
1 fresh jalapeño, seeded if desired, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
Zest of 1/2 lime
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 teaspoon sriracha or other hot sauce (or to taste)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds flank steak

  • Season steak with salt. Place in a large bowl and pour marinade over meat. Turn to coat well with the mixture. Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • When you are ready to cook the steak, heat the grill to medium-high heat, or heat the broiler with the rack set 4 inches from the heat source. Transfer meat to the grill and cook, covered, until it reaches the desired doneness (about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare), or broil until charred and done to taste, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right flank steak: Look for a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 pounds and has a uniform thickness. This will ensure that the steak cooks evenly.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help to tenderize it and add flavor. Be sure to marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: Flank steak is best cooked over high heat so that it can quickly sear and develop a nice crust. Be sure to preheat your grill or skillet before adding the steak.
  • Cook the steak to your desired doneness: Flank steak is typically cooked to medium-rare or medium. If you cook it too long, it will become tough and chewy.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Spicy Caribbean flank steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The flank steak is marinated in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs, then grilled or seared over high heat. The result is a tender and juicy steak with a slightly spicy kick. Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or vegetables.
