Ingredients
- Flat iron steak
- 1 (1.5 to 2 pounds)
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon, or to taste
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon, freshly ground
- Garlic
- 3 cloves, minced
- Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to high heat, aiming for a temperature of around 450°F (232°C).
- While the grill is heating, season your flat iron steak generously on both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic and extra virgin olive oil. Stir until well mixed.
- Using a basting brush, apply the garlic-infused oil evenly to both sides of the steak, ensuring that the steak is well coated.
- Once the grill is heated, place the steak on the grill grates. Cook for approximately 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to reach your preferred level of doneness.
- After grilling, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, ensuring a moist and flavorful bite.
- Slice the steak against the grain and serve. Enjoy your succulent grilled flat iron steak!
Tips
- For an extra flavor boost, consider marinating the steak in the garlic oil mixture for 1-2 hours before grilling.
- Pair this steak with a vibrant green salad or grilled vegetables for a balanced meal.
- If you don't have a grill, this recipe can also be prepared on a stovetop using a cast-iron skillet.
