🥘Ingredients

For the Marinade

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp honey
4 cloves garlic minced
1 tbsp fresh rosemary finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh thyme finely chopped
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt

For the Steak

2 lb flat iron steak

👨‍🍳Directions

1In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, honey, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, black pepper, and salt.
2Mix well until honey is fully dissolved and all ingredients are evenly combined.
3This will be your marinade.
4Place the flat iron steak in a large zip-top bag or a shallow dish.
5Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated.
6Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 4 hours for better flavor.
7Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
8Remove the steak from the marinade and shake off any excess.
9Discard the remaining marinade.
10Place the steak on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F.
11Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
12For medium, cook for 7-9 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
13For well-done, cook for 9-11 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F.
14Allow the steak to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
15This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a juicy and tender steak.
16Slice the steak into thin strips and serve immediately.
