How to Make Garlicky Steak Marinade

  1. Combine 1/4 cup packed fresh parsley, 2 tablespoons packed fresh mint, 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, and 6 cloves garlic in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped (or finely mince by hand).
  2. Add 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper to the food processor (or bowl if mincing by hand). Process until smooth.
  3. With the food processor running (or while stirring vigorously), slowly drizzle in 1/2 cup olive oil until emulsified.
  4. Place flank steak (approximately 1.5 lbs) in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour marinade over the steak, ensuring it's fully coated.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, turning the steak occasionally for even marination.
  6. Remove steak from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Grill, pan-fry, or broil to your desired doneness (approximately 20 minutes for grilling).
