I was rummaging through some of my old recipes and came across one of my all time favorite steak recipes I had to share. I am a meat lover. Period. I tend to stick to fish, chicken, and turkey during the weekdays, but love to indulge in a good piece of steak if the weekend permits.
Flank steak is awesome because it’s considered one of the leanest cuts of red meat. When seasoned well and cut right, it is so tasty! This would be a PERFECT dish to make if you’re hosting a dinner. Better yet, with Valentine’s Day just around the corner, this would be an awesome meal to make for your date! It takes NO time at all and it’s packed with yumminess.
There are only FIVE ingredients for this dish. Yup. FIVE. Get ready to have your mind blown. 🙂 Oh, and you’re welcome in advance loves!
INGREDIENTS:
– 1 lb flank steak
– 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
– 1/4 cup soy sauce
– 1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
– 3 cloves of garlic, chopped
Serves: 2-3 people
STEP ONE: Mix teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, and garlic together
STEP TWO: Cut diagonally against the grain ON BOTH SIDES – 1/4 inches deep and about 1/2 inch apart. This will help the meat soak up the marinade and once you cook it, it will cook faster. NOTE: When I bought this cut of meat, it looked huge, but it shrunk by 1/3 when I cooked it.
STEP THREE: Slap that mustard on and rub rub rub!
STEP FOUR: Top it off with the marinade
STEP FIVE: Cover and refrigerate for several hours. When you’re good and ready, turn the broiler on HIGH, wait for the oven to heat up, and slap that daddy in the oven (bottom rack) for about 6-8 minutes EACH side (for medium rare). You know your oven best so adjust the time as needed depending on heat level and how you’d like your steak cooked. When I turn the steak over, I baste it once if there’s any leftover marinade.
STEP SIX: Bam! Remove from oven, let it cool for at least 5 minutes before cutting! Serve with fluffy rice and yummy veggies. I like asparagus with it. I also pour a bit of the glaze over the rice. So stinkin’ good!
