AMAZING GINGER-GARLIC STEAK MARINADE
This marinade tenderizes the steaks and makes them absolutely delicious. You won't need steak sauce for this one! I will sometimes use it on a big London broil which I'll slice against the grain. The result is tender and really delicious. I never measure anything for this. It's hard to mess up. Prep time doesn't include time marinating in the fridge.

Steps:
- Throw all ingredients in a Ziplock bag with your steaks.
- Refrigerate overnight (tastes best), or for at least two hours.
- Cook your steaks however you want.
- Some people will probably scream unsanitary, but I like to boil down the marinade until it thickens in the same pan I cook my steaks in, and serve it as a pan sauce. I'm not dead yet!
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Whisk together lime juice, lemon juice, grapefruit juice, rice vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, and honey in a bowl until the honey has dissolved. Season with ginger, garlic salt, pepper, and cinnamon; whisk until blended. Place the flat iron steak into a resealable plastic bag, and pour the marinade overtop. Squeeze out the excess air, seal, and marinate in the refrigerator 1 1/2 hours. Do not marinate much longer than this, as the citrus juice will "cook" the beef.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
- Remove flat iron from the marinade, and discard the remaining marinade. Cook on preheated grill until the steak has attained your desired degree of doneness, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare. Place steak onto a plate, set aside, and allow to rest for 3 to 4 minutes before slicing.

Tips:
- To save time, you can marinate the steak for up to 24 hours in advance. Just be sure to bring it to room temperature before cooking.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the steak in a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
- For a more flavorful steak, use a flavorful cut of meat, such as flank steak or skirt steak.
- Be sure to cook the steak to your desired doneness. For a medium-rare steak, cook for 5-7 minutes per side.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak.
Conclusion:
This citrus ginger flat iron steak is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The marinade infuses the steak with flavor, and the quick cooking time makes it a snap to prepare. Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
