In a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, combine the red wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper.
Add the flank steak to the marinade, ensuring it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours for more flavor.
Remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated steak and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness.
Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
Meanwhile, prepare the salad by tossing the mixed greens with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Plate the greens on a serving dish and garnish with shaved Parmesan cheese.
Serve the sliced flank steak on top of or alongside the salad for a complete meal.
