Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Place the steak on a platter & season with S & P and place it in a gallon size plastic bag. If you don’t have one, use a shallow pan/bowl.
  2. Microwave limes for 30-45 seconds (until just barely warm). Roll limes on counter pressing as you roll. The limes will now give juice easier & more plentifully.
  3. Cut limes & squeeze into bag with steak.
  4. Pour oil & soy into bag along with garlic & ginger.
  5. Seal bag (trying not to have excess air in bag).
  6. After sealed, turn bag around & distribute liquid around to soak meat. Place bag in refrigerator for at least an hour & up to 4 hours. (no more than overnight)
  7. Take steak out of refrigerator 30-45 minutes before grilling so it can come to room temperature which helps ensure more even/controllable meat temperature.
  8. Grill to medium rare (4-6 minutes per side to mark & then another 3-4 per side on indirect will get you close) Be sure to monitor. Flank needs to cook hot & fast on a grill to be tender, so just keep that in mind with your grill temperature.
  9. Let steak rest for 10 minutes (lightly covered with foil) before slicing. Slice against the grain on flank to ensure tender slices! ENJOY!!
