How to make Marinated Flank Steak:
Steak Marinade: Add oil, soy sauce, peach juice, minced onion, and parsley to a large Ziploc bag, or container. Add the steak then marinate for 3-6 hours.
Grill: Flank steak is a thin cut of meat and you want to sear the outsides without overcooking the inside. Make sure the grill is preheated hot. And keep in mind the steak will continue to cook as it rests off the grill. We cook our flank steak on high heat for 3-4 minutes per side.
Rest the grilled flank steak for 5-10 minutes, covered with aluminum foil to keep warm.
To Serve: Slice meat across the grain, at a diagonal, in VERY THIN slices.
Recipe Variations:
Marinated Flank Steak Fajitas: Slice a couple bell peppers and an onion then season with salt and pepper. Cook on a very hot skillet or grill pan with oil for a few minutes. Serve flank steak and grilled vegetables in a warm flour tortilla topped with Pico de Gallo, guacamole, sour cream, and garnish with cilantro.
Marinated Flank Steak Tacos: Serve flank steak in a warm corn tortilla topped with Pico de Gallo or 5 minute salsa, avocado, and other favorite toppings.
Steak Salad: Serve on a bed of greens, with red onion, avocado, cherry tomato, cucumber, grilled corn, gorgonzola or bleu cheese.
