Flank Steak with Soy Marinade Recipe

Grilling season is not over yet. Try this scrumptious marinade for flank, skirt or London broil. It’s easy and fast. And every time I make it, someone wonders aloud: "Why we don’t have this every night?"

Serves: 6

Prep time: 10 min., plus 6-8 hrs. marinating time

Cook time: 25 min.

Ingredients

1/2 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce

3 tbsp. stone ground or country-style mustard

1 tsp. fresh ground pepper

4 cloves of garlic, chopped

2 lbs. flank steak

1. Start marinating this steak in the morning for dinner that night. In a glass measuring cup, make the marinade by combining all ingredients except the steak.

2. Put the steak in a zip-lock bag, and add the marinade. Refrigerate for 6-8 hours.

3. Remove the steak from the marinade. Grill (or in a pinch, broil) the steak for 7 minutes on each side for medium. Pull the meat off and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice against the grain in thin slices.

Complete the menu: With corn on the cob or potato salad, and fresh sliced tomatoes, you have a classic late-summer menu.

Wine note: This meal is worth pulling a good red out of your cellar to toast the waning days of the grill. Try a Meritage from California or a Malbec from Argentina. The Wine Discount Center has Remolinos Vineyard Agrelo Malbec 2007 for about $16.
