Flank Steak

This is one of my new favorite cuts of meat, seriously. This is the second time I've cooked flank steak and my mouth has been in heaven both times. If you love steak, this is just for you, trust me on this one.

Flank steak is not sold everywhere. Wal-Mart does not sell it, I get mine at the Food Pyramid. They are about $9-$15 a piece and can easily feed two people.

Let the steak sit out for a few hours, you want it to be room temperature before cooking.

Mix 2 tablespoons of dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons of worchestershire sauce and one tablespoon of kitchen bouquet. Kitchen bouquet is found near the other steak sauces.

Sprinkle kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper on all sides of your flank steak then brush this mixture on all sides.


Cook on an indoor grill or on your outdoor grill on a medium to medium-high setting. Cook on each side for about 12-15 minutes. Flank steak is intended to be cooked medium rare, it's just how it is folks. So if you're the kind of person who cries at the sight of pink in your steak, this probably isn't the right recipe for you... but just for the record, pink in steak is completely safe.

Let the steak rest for about 20-30 minutes with foil loosely laying over the top. This helps hold all of the juice in. Cut the steak against the grain in thin strips.

Deglaze your pan by turning your skillet on medium-high and pouring a little worchestershire sauce in the pan and scraping up all the brown bits. Drizzle your sauce over the steak and let your mouth be in steak heaven!
