How to make Grilled Flank Steak

Rub flank steak with chopped garlic, fresh thyme, and balsamic vinegar or soy sauce. Poke it in two directions with the tip of a paring knife.

Prepare a hot fire in a grill or preheat a grill pan over high heat and brown the steak for 2 minutes on the first side. Give it a 90-degree turn to create crosshatch marks and brown it for 2 minutes more on the same side.

Turn the steak over and brown it on the other side.

Let the steak rest for 5 minutes, and then slice it on the diagonal on a cutting board with a moat to catch the juices.
