Flank Steak Marinade
Flank Steak Marinade
This marinade is a salty-sweet mixture of olive oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, garlic and Worcestershire sauce. Everything gets whisked together, then you can place the meat in a bowl with the marinade, or instead make the marinade in a gallon sized freezer bag and add the meat to the bag. Using a freezer bag saves on clean up time later on!
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
- 2 teaspoons garlic chopped
- 1 1/2 pounds flank steak
Looks very good, did a little variation, like date syrup instead of brown sugar and added a few spices like, rosemary, thyme, sage ….will let you know how it turns out. Thank-you.

CAN YOU MARINATE FLANK STEAK OVERNIGHT?
Flank steak can absolutely be marinated overnight. I recommend marinating your steak for a minimum of 2 hours, or up to 24 hours.
HOW LONG DO YOU COOK STEAK?
I typically cook my flank steak for about 5-6 minutes per side, which leads to meat that’s cooked on the outside yet still pink in the center. The best way to gauge for doneness is to use a meat thermometer. I recommend cooking your flank steak to medium, which is an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. If you don’t want your meat to be pink, you can cook it to 150 degrees F for medium well, or 160 degrees F for well done.
HOW DO YOU SLICE FLANK STEAK?
It’s important to slice your flank steak against the grain so that it’s as tender as possible. You can find the direction of the grain by looking at your meat and seeing which way the muscle fibers run. Make sure to cut across those fibers rather than parallel to them.
