Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds flank steak
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 4 cloves garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the marinade. Finely chop the fresh rosemary and mince the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a paste-like marinade.
Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap.
Allow the steak to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
When ready to cook, preheat a grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/204°C). If you don’t have a grill, you can also use a grill pan on the stovetop.
Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off before placing it on the grill. Discard the remaining marinade.
Grill the flank steak for 5-6 minutes per side for medium-rare (135°F/57°C internal temperature) or longer depending on your desired level of doneness.
Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and transfer it to a cutting board. Tent it loosely with aluminum foil and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the rested steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve immediately with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
