Steps:
- Position a broiler pan on the rack closest to the broiler and preheat to high. Rub the steak lightly with some olive oil and sprinkle with the herbes de Provence and salt and pepper, to taste. Put the whole tomatoes, scallions, and garlic cloves in a large bowl, drizzle with about 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Turn the vegetables until they are lightly coated.
- Carefully lay the steak in the center of the hot pan, arrange the vegetables around it, and broil until the steak is brown but still tender to the touch and the vegetables are charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn the steak and the vegetables and broil another 5 to 6 minutes, until the steak is medium rare (an instant-read thermometer inserted crosswise into the side of the steak registers 130 degrees F) and vegetables are charred. Transfer the steak and vegetables to a cutting board.
- For the relish: Core the tomatoes, squeeze the garlic cloves from their skins, and chop them both with the scallions to make a chunky relish. Transfer the vegetables and all their juices to a bowl and stir in the remaining 1/4 cup or so of the olive oil, the vinegar, and the Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Slice the meat against the grain and on an angle, transfer to a plate or platter, and serve with the relish and toasted bread.

BRAISED FLANK STEAK WITH LEMON AND GARLIC
This is one of my mother's best recipes from my childhood. Flank steak was cheap back then, so feel free to substitute chuck steak or flap meat. The ingredients are simple but very flavorful. It's excellent with buttered noodles or white beans, and a green vegetable such as broccoli or asparagus.

FLANK STEAK WITH CUCUMBER-PEPPERONCINI RELISH
I got this recipe from Cooking Light and it is fabulous. Since it is meant for lighter fare, I tried the fat-free feta (recipe didn't call for fat-free version) and it did ruin the taste, so I recommend using regular feta. The recipe calls for bottled minced garlic and a pickled pepperoncini pepper, for some reason I couldn't add that to the ingredient list, so please keep that in mind when gathering your ingredients. I hope you enjoy.

Tips:
- Choose the right flank steak: Look for a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the flank steak in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple one made with olive oil, garlic, and herbs is a good option.
- Cook the steak over high heat: Flank steak is best cooked over high heat so that it can quickly sear on the outside while remaining tender on the inside. You can grill, pan-fry, or broil the steak, but make sure to cook it for no more than a few minutes per side.
- Let the steak rest before slicing: Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the steak with a flavorful sauce or relish: Flank steak is a versatile cut of meat that can be served with a variety of sauces or relishes. A simple chimichurri sauce or a fresh melon relish are both good options.
Conclusion:
Flank steak is a delicious and affordable cut of meat that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can cook a flank steak that is tender, flavorful, and juicy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give flank steak a try!
