NO GRILL FLANK STEAK

A tree limb fell through the Weber kettle and we decided not to replace it. We haven't missed it at all. A hot oven and a cast iron grill pan are much easier for just the two of us. We like flank steak. We cut it into meal-sized pieces and cook it quickly. You don't even need to marinate it.

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 - flank steak (adjust the size to the number of people)
1 tablespoon(s) olive oil
Optional - seasonings or marinade

Steps:

  • Optionally, marinate the steak for the amount of time appropriate for the marinade being used. Marinating is NOT necessary but a choice.
  • About 25 minutes before you intend to cook the steak, place the cast iron grill pan in the oven and pre-heat the oven to 450 F
  • At this time, also take the steak out of the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature.
  • If you marinated the steak, dry it thoroughly with paper towels. If the steak is wet when it hits the pan it will stew rather than grill.
  • Rub the steak on both sides with the olive oil.
  • Season to taste. Simply using salt and pepper makes a tasty steak that tastes of pure BEEF. Any dried herb or spice mix may be used.
  • Place the steak on the pre-heated grill pan and bake for 5 minutes.
  • Flip the steak and bake an additional 5 minutes. This results in a medium rare steak by the time it is done resting.
  • Remove from the pan, losely cover with foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Slice very thinly perpendicular to the grain. Flank steak will be tough cut any other way, including at an angle as recommended in so many recipes.
  • If you have leftovers, slice and reheat briefly in a buttered skillet to make a truly sinful steak sandwich.

A wonderful flank steak on the grill recipe I invented that friends just love! My girls think this is great, and it doesn't take long to grill. This also works great when sliced and used for fajitas.
