Marinated Flank Steak

Fab4mom's Note:

This is a favorite of mine that I found in the Eating For Life Cookbook. This cookbook is a helpful tool when participating in the Body For Life program. Keep in mind that the Body For Life program equates a protein portion to the size of your palm, so the portion size maybe small for someone not participating in this program. I absolutely love this recipe because it doesn't taste like it would be healthy, but it is.

• Total Time: 24 hrs 45 mins
• Prep Time: 24 hrs 30 mins
• Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 1⁄3; cup light soy sauce (I use the low sodium one)
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 minced garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 (1 ½ lb) flank steaks

Directions:

1. Combine first 6 ingredients in a small bowl.
2. Pierce both sides of the flank steak with a fork.
3. Place steak and mixed ingredients into a large size Ziploc bag.
4. Refrigerate 4 hours minimum, but overnight for the best flavor.
5. Preheat broiler or grill. (I have never grilled this steak, but I am sure it would be excellent grilled.)
6. Place broiler pan in oven for one minute.
7. Place the marinaded steak on the heated broiler pan.
8. Broil in oven on top rack for about 6 minutes per side for medium-well doneness.
9. Let steak cool for a few minutes and then slice across the grain into very thin slices( 1/8" approx.).

Thank you, thank you. I own this cookbook but right now it's in storage. My husband just said he wanted to use this marinade. I did an google search and found this. I love this marinade.
