Ingredients
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small white onion, minced
- 1 12-oz bottle amber or nut-brown beer (not dark beer)
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
- 2 lb flank steak, trimmed
- High-heat cooking oil (such as grape seed or safflower), as needed
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
Preparation
- In a large bowl, combine garlic, onion, beer, mustard, soy sauce and rosemary. Transfer steak to a large resealable bag or container and pour marinade over steak, turning to coat. Transfer to refrigerator to marinate overnight, turning occasionally.
- Heat a grill to medium-high and brush grates with oil. Remove steak from marinade, discarding any remaining marinade. Season steak with salt and pepper. Grill steak for about 5 to 6 minutes per side, turning once, for medium-rare doneness, or 7 to 8 minutes per side for medium doneness. (NOTE: Test with an instant-read thermometer, steak should register 145°F in thickest part.) Rest for 5 minutes, covered, before serving. To serve, slice across the grain.
