We picked up a 1-1/2 lb. flank steak last week, and I had
all intentions of grilling this to perfection. The weather in Western
NY just didn’t cooperate that day, so we did the next best thing
was to broil it.
Flank steak is a long flat cut from the belly or butt of the
cow, and is used in many dishes such as London broil, Asian Stir fry and also
famous as the steak for Fajitas.
We decided to make a dry hand rub, after mixing the
ingredients we rubbed both sides of the flank stake, set the oven on broil. The
steak was 1-1/2 lbs. so we broiled it for about 10 to 12 minutes per side.
Cutting the steak against the grain we had nice juicy slices and served with
rice and kale this made a delicious meal.
Here are the seasonings we used for the rub:
4 tsp. onion powder
2 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. mustard powder
¼ tsp. dried thyme
¼ tsp. ground black pepper
1 tsp sea salt
As always thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy.
Looks like a great meal, Sam. Flank steak just has so much flavour.
ReplyDeleteHi David, Yes it was really good, next time maybe I can use the grill!! Thanks for stopping by
DeleteGood to hear that steak turned out just fine broiled inside instead of on the grill. Better luck next time with Mother Nature!
ReplyDeleteHi Ruth, Yes, it did turn out okay. Here in Western NY we had rain 22 out of 30 days in June. It hasn't rained in 4 days, but here we are on the 5th day and it is raining. Oh well!!!! Thanks so much for stopping by.
DeleteGot to try this one. Years ago my husband used to grill flank steak after I marinated it in Italian dressing. It was always tender, definitely going to do this one today.
