As a busy mom, I am often asked for tips to get dinner on the table faster. My answer is simple: Marinated, grilled meats are your friend (especially when the weather is ideal to grill!)
My husband and boys love this garlic soy marinated grilled flank steak. It’s a tried-and-true dinner recipe in my household. The best part? The juicy, tender steak is packed with flavor and takes less than one hour to whip up.
How to Make Garlic Soy Marinated Grilled Flank Steak
First, create the marinade by combining the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and garlic together in a separate bowl.
Next, use a whisk and stir the flavors together. This quick, homemade marinade is a great example of using ingredients you likely have on hand. Why buy a bottled marinade from the store (often with additional fillers, too much sodium and corn syrup) when you can make your own?
After you create the marinade, add the flank steak to the bowl. Make sure every part of the steak is covered in the delicious garlic soy marinade you just created.
Allow the steak to soak in the marinade for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours. As your meat marinates, the beef tenderizes, resulting in a juicy, flavorful steak every time. Firing up the grill makes takeout less appealing and less takeout = fewer calories and more money to spend on new clothes, am I right?!
Next, fire up your grill! Cook the flank steak on high heat for four to five minutes per side for medium-rare or longer for well done. You can use a meat thermometer to grill until it reaches your desired temperature.
After you grill the steak, set it on a cutting board and slice to prepare for serving. For flank steak, you always want to cut it against the grain to help make your steak more tender. As a reminder, be sure to let the steak rest at least five minutes before slicing.
Finally, garnish the flank steak with fresh herbs and serve.
