Ingredients

  • 2 lbs flat iron steak
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, black pepper, and salt.
  2. Place the flat iron steak in a large resealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the excess marinade.
  4. Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, the internal temperature should be around 130°F.
  5. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a tender and juicy steak.
  6. Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve immediately and enjoy!
