GARLIC BUTTER SKILLET FLANK STEAK OVEN RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mince garlic and parsley and set aside so they are ready to add to sauce.
• Divide flank steak into 4 equal portions, pat dry and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• In a large cast iron pan, heat oil over medium high heat until pan is very hot. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to pan and let melt. Sear steaks on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
• Place cast iron skillet into oven and cook for another 3 minutes, or until steaks reach 125 degrees on an instant read thermometer.
• Carefully remove cast iron skillet from oven and return to stovetop, handle will be very hot. Remove steaks from pan and set aside to rest, then prepare pan sauce.
• Heat skillet over medium low heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter and garlic to skillet and saute for 1-2 minutes.
• Add white wine and any juices from resting steak to pan and increase heat to medium high. Bring to boil and let reduce about 5 minutes until slightly thickened, scraping up brown bits from pan as it reduces.
• Remove pan from heat, add final tablespoon of butter and freshly chopped parsley to sauce and season with additional slat and pepper as needed.
• Slice flank steak portions against the grain, spoon sauce over slices and serve.

PAN SEARED & OVEN ROASTED GARLIC BUTTER STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
• Mix parsley and garlic. Sprinkle lightly with salt and mash slightly to mix, then mix with butter.
• Melt the butter mixture over low heat in a small pan.
• Season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper and place a heavy pan or iron skillet over high heat. Lightly coat pan with oil when hot. Sear the steak until browned on one side (5 minutes). Turn the steak and brush the top generously with the flavored butter.
• Place into the heated oven and cook to your preference (check after 5 minutes by cutting into the center of one of the steaks). The meat will continue to cook from residual heat, so remove it from the oven when slightly less done than you wish.
• Pour remaining butter and any pan juices over the meat and let it stand for a few minutes before serving.

THE BEST EASY OVEN ROASTED GARLIC FLANK STEAK RECIPE

Steps:

• Lay flank steak out flat, trim any extra fat or silver skin.
• Generously season steak with salt and pepper.
• Add olive oil, herbs, lemon zest and juice, and diced garlic to a large bowl or (preferably) a large plastic bag and mix well.
• Add steak to bag and let marinate for 40 minutes up to two hours.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees (or 450 - as high as your oven broiler can go.)
• Add large cast iron pan or skillet to oven. If you don't have a pan or cast iron griddle large enough for your steak, you can use a heavy baking sheet lined with foil. (Cast iron will get best results, but don't worry if you don't have it.) Make sure pan is close to broiler, but not touching (I give about 5" to make sure my steak has room under the broiler since I have a gas flame broiler and don't want to start a fire from spattering fat.) Let pan get scorching hot before adding steak to it for the best texture.
• Remove steak from bag, and sprinkle with garlic powder.
• Cook steak in oven for 8 minutes, then flip to other side and cook another 8.
• Continue to cook until steak has reached desired doneness: 125 degrees with a digital thermometer inserted into the fattest part of the steak will give you a rare steak. 135 degrees will get you medium rare, 155 for medium well, and 165 degrees for well done.
• When your steak is done to your taste, remove from oven.
• Place a small piece of foil over the steak to "tent" it and let it finish carryover cooking as it rests for 10 minutes.
• When steak has rested for at least 10 minutes (don't rush - if you cut it right off the grill the steaks juices will all run out), slice it width-wise (so you have lots of thin strips instead of just a few long strips) against the grain - which is essential to keeping the steak from being too chewy or tough.
• Serve immediately and enjoy!
