Grilling flank steaks in the oven makes it easy to cook a substantial piece of meat. This low-cost, delicious steak is a great option to satisfy sweet tooth. It's as tender and easy as any steak that you can purchase at a restaurant. First, prepare a large baking pan with parchment paper. Then heat the frying pan. Place the steaks onto the frying pan. After about a minute, flip them and let them rest for fifteen seconds.

A meat tenderizer can be used to make your steak tender. You can purchase a meat tenderizer online or from a store. You will need a bag that can hold a plastic food storage container to store the steak. After placing the steak on a cuttingboard, pound it with the meat tenderizer. After it has been flattened, place it on a broiler plate so that it can reach high temperatures. It can be broil for a few seconds to seal in the juices.


When cooking a flank steak, keep in mind that it will not be cooked through until this step. A probe thermometer can be used to measure the meat temperature. If the meat is done, it will emit a loud beep. It should rest for at minimum an hour before being served. This will allow it to cool off and absorb the steak's juices. Once it has rested, you can store it in an airtight container to keep it fresh and delicious.

You can marinate flank steaks with soy sauce and brown sugar. Salt, oil, and red wine vinegar are some of the most common spices used for steak. Marinated meats can be prepared with soy sauce or honey. Remember that the more you add salt, the more flavorful the sauce will be.

After the flank steak has been resting, you can begin to add the spices. If you're cooking a flank steak for the first time, make sure you don't flip it too often, since the surface will become soggy. Instead, let it rest in the marinade until it is ready to be cooked. Place the steak on a platter with a rimmed surface and let it rest for five minutes before you serve. Then, serve it up.

Medium Rare: Cook the meat until it reaches medium rare (63°C). This takes between 3 and 5 minutes per side.

Medium: Cook until medium, which means the internal temp reaches 160degF (71degC). This typically takes 6 minutes per side.

Cook well until done. That means that the internal temp reaches 180degF (82degC). This takes between 8 and 12 minutes per side.
