How to Make Grilled Flank Steak Mandarin Style
- Marinate the steak for at least 3 hours (or preferably overnight) in the marinade (recipe below).
- Prepare your grill for medium-high heat.
- Score the steak by making shallow X-shaped cuts across the surface with a sharp knife. This helps with even cooking and tenderness.
- Grill the steak for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy (130-135°F for medium-rare).
- Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Slice the steak thinly *against the grain* for maximum tenderness. This is especially important when using flank or skirt steak.
- Serve the steak immediately with your favorite sides, such as steamed rice, roasted potatoes, and a refreshing Asian-inspired salad.
