My sister, Kathy, and I often exchange recipes and this grilled flank steak recipe is from her. It's become a favorite of mine to serve to company. The meat and vegetables can be prepared ahead of time. When company arrives, just fire up the grill! -Jenny Reece, Farwell, Minnesota

Categories Beef Dinner Grill/Barbecue

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

3 tablespoons molasses
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
3 cloves garlic, chopped
One 2-pound flank steak, trimmed of excess fat
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Whisk together the molasses, mustard, olive oil, vinegar, soy sauce, rosemary and garlic in a 2-cup measuring cup. Pour the marinade into a 1-gallon size ziptop bag. Add the flank steak and turn to coat with the marinade. Place in the refrigerator for 4 hours (or at least 1 hour if time is limited). Remove the steak from the fridge at least 30 minutes before grilling to remove the chill. Heat a cast-iron grill pan or outdoor gas grill over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Sprinkle the steak well with salt and pepper. Grill the steak on each side for 5 to 6 minutes, a total of 12 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing across the grain.
