Gas-Grilled Flank Steak

Most marinades fail miserably, neither tenderizing meat nor adding much flavor. We found a way to quickly do both: double dipping.

Before You Begin

*

Flank steak is best when cooked rare, or medium-rare at most. It is also very important for the meat to rest after it comes off the grill.

Instructions

1.

Turn all burners on gas grill to high, close lid, and heat grill until hot, 10 to 15 minutes.

2.

Generously sprinkle both sides of steak with salt and pepper; grill steak covered for 4 to 6 minutes on first side and 3 to 5 minutes on second side. Transfer meat to cutting board; cover loosely with foil, and let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Slice very thin, on bias against the grain; adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper and serve immediately.
