ORANGE-GLAZED FLANK STEAK



Orange-Glazed Flank Steak image

My friend call this her "go to" recipe for entertaining for good reason. You prepare the marinade the night before and the glaze early on the day before you serve it. Leaves you with a great meal and time to mingle. Cut the recipe in half and use only one 2 lb. steak or two 1 pound steaks. Other steak cuts work well, too. I serve this with either Recipe #16870 or Recipe #292772. From Gourmet Magazine via the food network site.

GARLIC FENNEL FLANK STEAK WITH ORANGES



Garlic Fennel Flank Steak with Oranges image

While this dish may appear to be inspired by Italian or Spanish influences (which it is), it's also a take on one of my favorite Chinese dishes: spicy orange beef. I love to grill flank steak with a highly-flavored rub of garlic, fennel, salt and black pepper.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Beef     Steaks     Flank Steak Recipes

Time 2h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fennel seed
2 teaspoons salt
4 cloves garlic, crushed
4 sprigs rosemary, leaves stripped and bruised
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 orange, juiced
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 (2 pound) flank steak
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
2 oranges, halved

Steps:

  • Grind black pepper and fennel seed together in a mortar with a pestle. Pour half the pepper mixture into a small bowl and stir in salt.
  • Stir remaining pepper mixture, garlic, rosemary, 2 tablespoons olive oil, orange juice, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.
  • Rub rosemary mixture over both sides of flank steak, poking mixture into steak several times with a fork. Transfer steak to a resealable plastic bag and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Remove steak from marinade; scrape off and discard any excess marinade.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Sprinkle reserved pepper-fennel mixture over steak. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over orange halves.
  • Cook steak on the preheated grill until it begins to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove to a plate to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing across the grain.
  • Place oranges, flesh-side down, on the grill and cook until flesh is golden and caramelized, 3 to 5 minutes. Place steak and 3 orange halves on a serving platter. Squeeze remaining caramelized orange half over the steak.

Tips:

  • Choose the right flank steak: Look for a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick and has a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a mixture of orange juice, olive oil, garlic, and herbs will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: Flank steak should be cooked over high heat so that it cooks quickly and evenly. This will help to prevent the steak from becoming tough.
  • Don't overcook the steak: Flank steak is a thin cut of meat, so it is important to not overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and chewy.
  • Slice the steak against the grain: When slicing the steak, be sure to slice it against the grain. This will help to make the steak more tender and easier to chew.
  • Serve the steak with a flavorful sauce: A flavorful sauce can help to enhance the flavor of the steak. Some good options include orange sauce, chimichurri sauce, or a simple vinaigrette.

Conclusion:

Flank steak with orange sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. By following the tips above, you can ensure that your steak is tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection.
