Meaty Monday: Marinated Flank Steak

flank steak

Ever since JP and I got together, steak has been our go to date-night-in meal.  He tackles the grill while I work on the side dishes.  Usually we opt for big, marbled rib eyes, but during “Snowpocalypse,” JP picked up some flank steak.  I grew up eating flank steak and always have found it kind of blah.  It’s such a lean cut of meat that it can be overcooked really easily and more often than not, it ends up tough.  Grilling it hot and fast is usually your best bet.  I doctored this marinade from a Rachael Ray recipe and it turned out fabulous.  Tender, juicy and full-oh-flavah.
