Alberta Flank Steak is a staple in many households, and for a good reason. The flank steak is an affordable cut of meat that is incredibly flavorful when marinated correctly. A simple marinade made with soy sauce, red wine, olive oil, ginger, and garlic infuses the meat with flavor and tenderizes it at the same time. Grilling the steak to your desired doneness is quick and easy, making it an excellent dinner option for any weeknight.

Instructions

1.	In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, red wine, olive oil, ginger, and garlic.
2.	Place the flank steaks into a large resealable bag and pour in the marinade.
3.	Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, then massage the bag to ensure the marinade is evenly distributed.
4.	Marinate the steaks in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
5.	Heat the grill to high heat and place the steaks on the grill.
6.	Grill for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare or 145°F for medium.
7.	Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

PROS

Alberta Flank Steak is a flavorful cut of meat that is incredibly tender when cooked correctly.

It’s an excellent option for a quick and easy weeknight meal, and the marinade adds depth of flavor.

CONS

Flank steak can be a tougher cut of meat, which is why marinating it is crucial.

It’s also important to let the meat rest before slicing to ensure the juices distribute evenly.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

While flank steak is a healthy protein option, the marinade’s high sodium content should be taken into consideration.
However, ginger and garlic both have anti-inflammatory properties, and olive oil is high in healthy monounsaturated fats.
