Grilled Flank Steak
Grilled Flank Steak
A flank steak is lean and boneless, but it’s not tender: It comes from the underside of the cow, and on its own it’s thin and tough. But it’s awfully flavorful and worth cooking—if you season and sear it right, you can bring out its rich, beefy essence and its pleasingly chewy texture. It’s good on its own with a baked potato, but it’s also great to throw on top of a Caesar salad, or stuff slices into tacos and burritos. Make sure you always cut a flank steak against the grain for maximum tendernes
