Grilled Flank Steak

A simple marinade makes this Grilled Flank Steak tasty and juicy! I love a good piece of meat, especially this grilled flank steak right off the grill. It’s juicy and garlicy, plus really tender too. Delicious served with Oven Roasted Asparagus Recipe or Twice Baked Potatoes. What is a Flank Steak? What exactly is a flank steak you ask? Well, it’s a flavorful, versatile and low fat content cut of beef. Sometimes called a London Broil or jiffy steak, it is best enjoyed by cutting it against the grain to retain the texture and tenderness. Sometimes just salt and pepper is all this steak needs before hitting the grill, but today I am sharing an amazing marinade with you. It...
