Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lb flat iron steak trimmed
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 1/2 tsp salt adjust to taste

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, oregano, black pepper, and salt until combined.
  • Place the flat iron steak in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it, coating the meat evenly.
  • Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 8 hours for best flavor.
  • Remove the steak from the refrigerator 20–30 minutes before grilling to come toward room temperature for even cooking.
  • Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and oil the grates lightly.
  • Grill the steak 4–6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness using an instant-read thermometer (about 130°F for medium-rare).
  • Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
  • Serve warm with any pan juices spooned over the slices.
