Grilled Flank Steak
Ingredients
- ¾ cup low-sodium tamari (wheat-free)
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- ¼ cup pineapple juice
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons dry mustard
- 4 cloves garlic, minced (or 4 teaspoons minced)
- Freshly cracked pepper, to taste
- 2½ pounds flank steak
Directions
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together tamari, balsamic vinegar, pineapple juice, olive oil, dry mustard, garlic, and pepper to create marinade.
- Place flank steak in a large glass dish. Pour marinade over steak, and cover. Place in refrigerator and marinate meat for 8 to 24 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Grill or broil until done with internal temperature of 140° F for rare or 160° F for medium. (Well-done or 180° F is not recommended, as it will make this cut of meat very tough.)
- Slice across the grain into thin slices, and serve warm or cold.
Good to know
- Tips: Flank steak is very lean, which means it can be a bit tough. The longer it marinates, the more tender it will be and more enhanced the flavor will be. Also, be sure not to overcook.
