Grilled Flank Steak image

The simplest protein we know is our grandmother's marinated flank steak -- a recipe whose source she has long forgotten, but which we like to think was inspired by her childhood in Japan and her golden years in the South: pour a half-cup of bourbon, a half-cup of soy sauce and a half-cup of water into a freezer bag, add the steak, seal shut and marinate for four hours in the fridge.

Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/2 cup bourbon
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 1/2 pound flank steak

Steps:

  • In small bowl, whisk together bourbon, soy sauce and half a cup of water to make a marinade. Pour marinade into a gallon-size self-sealing food storage bag. Put steak in bag, and turn it over several times so that the entire cut is coated. Marinate in refrigerator 4 hours, turning steak once after 2 hours. Pour off marinade and blot steak dry with paper towels.
  • Prepare a fire in the grill. When flames have subsided and coals are glowing, grill steak 4 minutes on one side for rare, 5 minutes for medium rare. Turn steak, and grill 3 or 4 minutes more, to taste.
  • Transfer steak to a cutting board, lightly cover with aluminum foil, and let rest 5 minutes. Slice steak crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices.
