Instructions:
-
Score Flank Steak: Begin by scoring the flank steak on both sides. This helps the marinade penetrate the meat, infusing it with flavor.
-
Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, ketchup, and garlic powder. This harmonious blend of ingredients forms the mouthwatering marinade that will impart depth and richness to the flank steak.
-
Marinate Flank Steak: Place the scored flank steak in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Allow the steak to marinate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight in the refrigerator. This marinating process allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in a tender and flavorful steak.
-
Broil to Perfection: After marinating, it’s time to cook the steak. Preheat your broiler to high heat. Remove the flank steak from the marinade and discard any excess marinade. Place the steak on a broiler pan or a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Broil the steak for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. For a medium-rare steak, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C).
-
Slice and Serve: Once the steak is cooked to perfection, remove it from the broiler and let it rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Then, using a sharp knife, slice the steak thinly against the grain on the diagonal. This slicing technique ensures tender slices that are easy to chew. Serve the succulent slices of marinated flank steak alongside your favorite side dishes or as appetizers on French bread rounds.
