SIMPLE BROILED FLANK STEAK WITH HERB OIL
Flank steak is a relatively lean cut of meat but full of flavor. This preparation is low on the fussiness factor: Put your seasoned steak on a preheated broiler pan and cook, no flipping needed. Just be sure to cut the meat against the grain-across, not parallel with, the visible lines of muscle fibers-so the steak will be tender, not chewy.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack 5 to 6 inches from the broiler unit, and preheat the broiler. Line a broiler pan or baking sheet with foil, and set the broiler insert on top of the broiler pan if using. Place the pan on the oven rack, and preheat until hot, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix together 1/4 cup of the oil, parsley, vinegar, garlic, pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Cover the herb oil, and set aside until ready to serve.
- Stir together the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture on both sides of the steak.
- Carefully remove the broiler pan from the oven, put the steak in the center and broil (without turning) until nicely browned and firm, with some give when pressed in the thickest part, 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare. Let the steak rest for 10 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain, and serve with the herb oil.

BROILED/GRILLED FLANK STEAK
Steps:
- Place steaks in flat shallow dish. Make marinade by combining the remaining ingredients except consommé and cornstarch. Mix well and pour over meat. Pierce meat with meat fork to let marinade enter steak. I usually put the meat and marinade in a gallon sized plastic bag at this point and place in refrigerator. Cover or place in bag and let stand two hours or more ( flip bag once in a while). Drain steaks saving marinade. Broil steaks 3" from heat, over charcoal or in oven broiler. For medium rare, allow 5-7 minutes on each side. While steak is cooking, heat marinade to boiling. Add consommé soup and thicken with 3tbs. of cornstarch dissolved in 3Tbs of COLD water if desired. When steaks are done, transfer to cutting board and slice diagonally across the grain. Serve with sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right flank steak: Look for a steak that is about 1 1/2 inches thick and has a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak helps to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs is a good option.
- Broil the steak over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside tender and juicy. Be sure to watch the steak closely so that it doesn't overcook.
- Let the steak rest before slicing: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Some popular options include mashed potatoes, green beans, and grilled corn on the cob.
Conclusion:
Broiled flank steak is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please everyone at your table. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of preparation, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that is ready in no time.
