FLANK STEAK (MARINATED)
DH's all-time favourite steak! It really must be marinated overnight if you are going to use flank steak. I usually buy a more tender cut of meat. If a barbecue is not available, your oven broiler will do fine. I have even used the Foreman Grill, at maximum heat. The taste is "to die for". Baked, or twice baked potatoes and a nice crisp salad work well with this. Note: marinating time is not included in the preparation time.
