Broiled Flank Steak

A very easy, very delicious flank steak that fast-marinates in about two hours and broils in about fifteen minutes. Total hands on time does not exceed five minutes. Makes an excellent main dish or as a topping to a salad.

Ingredients

1 2-3 lb flank steak

Marinade:

1/3 cup olive oil
2 Tablespoons liquid smoke I like "Stubs All-Natural" liquid smoke.
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
3 Tablespoons Chinese black vinegar

Seasoning Rub:

2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons mustard powder

Garnish

1/4 cup chopped green onions just the green tops
1/4 cup chopped cilantro or parsley

Instructions

In a small bowl, mix all dry rub ingredients together.
Mix all marinade ingredients in a medium size bowl. Sprinkle with garnishes.
In a large baking dish, coat the steak with the spice rub on both sides.
Pour marinade on the steak and flip over so both sides have been coated. Refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
Broil the flank steak (and the marinade) for 10 minutes, flip steak over and broil for 5-6 minutes more.
Let the flank steak rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
Slice into thin strips, on the bias (diagonally).
I've served this with mushroom risotto, with mashed potatoes, atop a spinach salad, and most recently with vegetable lo mien. It's always excellent.
