Balsamic Flank Steak

SERVES: 6

CHILL TIME: 4 Hr

COOK TIME: 8 Min

Let's get back to our roots with an old steak favorite! The perfectly flavorful marriage of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and Dijon mustard, along with a few fresh herbs and spices, makes lively marinade for our grilling favorite: Flank steak! Our Balsamic Flank Steak is a juicy, flavor-packed steak that will really shake up dinnertime.

What You'll Need

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (1-1/2- to 2-pound) beef flank steak

What to Do

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine all ingredients except steak; mix well.
Score steak on both sides by making shallow diagonal cuts 1-1/2 inches apart, creating a criss-cross pattern. Place steak in bag, seal, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 4 hours or overnight, turning bag over occasionally.
Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Remove steak from marinade and discard excess marinade. Grill steak 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until center is cooked to medium.
Allow steak to rest 5 minutes before slicing on an angle across the grain. Serve and enjoy.

This sounds like a good marinade. I never grilled flank steak, I'll give it a try.
