Braised Flank Steak Recipes

BRAISED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of the steak with the oregano, salt and pepper.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high.
• When the pan is very hot, add the steak.
• Cook the steak for 4 minutes, or until it lifts easily off the pan and is browned on the underside.
• Turn the steak and cook another 4 minutes.
• Add the vermouth and tomatoes to the pan, cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer 25 minutes.
• Turn heat up to medium high and cook another 5 minutes, or until the liquid in the pan has evaporated.
• Transfer the meat to a carving board, and let sit 5 minutes before cutting on the diagonal into very thin strips.
• Serve the steak strips fanned out on the plate, and spoon some of the tomato from the pan over the meat.

BRAISED FLANK STEAK IN THE OVEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with foil.
• Whisk water, steak sauce, and soup mix together in a small bowl. Pour a little into the bottom of the prepared pan. Add the steak, then the remaining sauce. Cover with foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tender and hot and slightly pink in the center, 1 to 2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium.

BRAISED STUFFED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Score flank steak on each side at 1 inch intervals.
• In large bowl combine bread cubes, onion, celery, parsley, sage, salt & pepper, wine and mix well.
• Place stuffing down center of meat and roll up, working from the long side, and tie with cooking twine.
• In a dutch oven or large pan, brown the meat in the hot oil.
• Add 2 cups water and boullion.
• Cover and simmer for 2 to 2 1/2 hrs until tender.
• Slice across grain and serve with juices.

BROILED FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Combine oil, soy sauce, water, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and pepper in a small bowl. Mix until combined.
• Cut shallow slashes in a crosshatch pattern on both sides of the steak, being careful not to cut all the way through.
• Place steak in a low, flat dish and pour marinade on top, covering meat completely. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight, turning steak over once.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Remove steak from the marinade and place on a baking pan. Reserve marinade.
• Broil, brushing occasionally with marinade, until browned and heated through, about 5 minutes per side. Remove steak to a platter and cover loosely with foil. Let rest for at least 5 minutes. Slice into 1- to 2-inch strips across the grain.
