How to Make Honey Steak Marinade

  1. Score the flank steak by making crisscross cuts 1/4 inch deep on both sides of the meat. This helps the marinade penetrate and ensures even cooking.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients until well combined.
  3. Place the steak in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it's fully coated. Marinate for at least 45 minutes, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches your desired internal temperature.
  5. Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain on a diagonal. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender steak.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as rice, grilled vegetables, or a fresh salad.
