Lemon-garlic flank steak

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ pounds Flank Steak (1 Piece)
½ medium Sweet Onion; Thinly Sliced
And Separated Into Rings
⅓ cup Lemon Juice
1 large Clove Garlic; Split
1 tablespoon Sugar
½ teaspoon Salt
2 tablespoons Soy Sauce

Directions

Pull off any membrane from the steak and trim away any surface fat.

Score the steak, ⅛-inch deep, on both sides in a diamond pattern.

In a plastic bag or glass dish large enough to hold the steak, combine the onion, lemon juice, garlic, sugar, salt, and soy sauce.

Add the steak and close the bag tightly if using and turn the meat to coat thoroughly. Marinate for 1 to 2 hours at room temperature, 6 to 8 hours in the refrigerator. Drain off and reserve the marinade.

Grill the steak 3 to 5 inches above hot coals until rare to medium-rare, 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Meanwhile, heat the remaining marinade. Remove the steak to a cutting board and cut, in thin slices, across the grain, slanting the knife slightly. Serve the meat with the marinade.
