2. Rinse flank steak and pat dry; put in a 1-gallon zip-lock plastic bag. Pour in all but about 3/4 cup of the marinade (save remaining for grilled eggplant and pepper salad - recipe#200475) seal bag and turn to coat meat well. Chill for at least 4 hours and up to 1 day.

Cook steak, turning occasionally, until browned on both sides and still pink in the center (medium-rare, cut to test) 10 to 12 minutes total.
