Flat Iron Steak

I was at the grocery store and spied a flat iron steak. I had not seen one of these at a reasonable price for some time and decided to grab this one. It was small, maybe 1/2 pound total weight but more than enough for me.

I did some Google research and found this recipe. Per the instructions I let the steak marinate for 7 hours. Once cooked the steak was not bad, but the flavor from the marinade was very mild. I'll try another marinade next time.


Flat Iron Steak

1-1/4 - 1-1/2 lb flat iron steak
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tblsps balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, peeled & crushed
1 tsp Italian seasoning
salt & pepper

Place steak in a sealable plastic bag.

In a small glass bowl, whisk together all ingredients. Pour over the steak and marinate for at least 1 hour or as long as 8 hours.

Let meat sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour prior to grilling.

Remove meat from marinade and discard marinade.

Place steak on pre-heated grill, cook about 5 minutes. Turn the steak over and move to a slightly cooler part of the grill. Continue grilling for about 4 minutes, Be careful not to overcook.

Thinly slice across the grain.

Serves 6
