A bit spicy but not HOT. Very simple to make and a big hit. Great for when you have a bunch of friends coming for dinner.

Time 5h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 lbs flank steaks, trimmed of fat (it's hard to find a 3 lb flank steak so it might be more than one)
marinade
2 tablespoons minced chipotle chiles in adobo
1 tablespoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1/3 cup olive oil
3/4 cup red wine (I prefer Merlot)
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons minced chipotle chiles in adobo
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons dijon-style mustard
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon allspice
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Marinade flank steak for 4 hours or overnight.
  • Remove from marinade and pat dry.
  • Grill on BBQ until just medium rare.
  • Grill time will depend on the size of flank steak (s) (DO NOT OVERCOOK THE FLANK STEAK).
  • Cover loosely with aluminum foil for 7-10 minutes.
  • Slice the meat against the grain in about 1/4 inch thick slices or as thin as you can reasonably get.
  • (It is VERY important to slice the meat against the grain or it will be tough.) At last minute pour some of the dipping sauce over the cut up flank steak and serve.
  • Put the left over dipping sauce on the table for everyone to enjoy.
  • Goes great with grilled corn on the cob and white sticky rice.
  • try pouring a little of the dipping sauce on the rice.
