Flat iron steak is marinated briefly for tenderness, then grilled hot and fast before being brushed with a reduced balsamic glaze. The glaze's sweetness balances the char from the grill, making this a quick but impressive dinner for weeknights or weekend cookouts.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds flat iron steak
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1/2 cup balsamic glaze
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Method
-
In a shallow dish, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the flat iron steak and turn to coat on both sides.
-
Cover and marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes, or refrigerate up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
-
Preheat a grill to high heat, about 450°F, and clean the grates well.
-
Remove the steak from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and place on the hot grill.
-
Grill the steak for 4 to 5 minutes per side, turning once, until a thermometer reads 130°F for medium-rare.
-
Transfer the steak to a cutting board, brush generously with half the balsamic glaze, and let rest for 10 minutes.
-
Slice the steak thinly against the grain and arrange on a serving platter.
-
Drizzle the sliced steak with the remaining balsamic glaze and sprinkle with chopped rosemary and parsley before serving.
