1
Prepare the Flank Steak
Remove the flank steak from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps it cook evenly.
2
Season the Steak
Pat the flank steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

3
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside on paper towels to drain excess fat.
4
Sear the Steak
In the same skillet, using the bacon fat, increase the heat to medium-high. Add the seasoned flank steak and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness (medium-rare is about 130°F).
5
Rest the Steak
Once cooked, transfer the flank steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.

6
Slice the Steak
After resting, slice the flank steak against the grain into thin strips.
7
Prepare the Toppings
Crumble the cooked bacon and chop the green onions.
8
Assemble the Dish
On a serving platter, arrange the sliced flank steak. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon, bleu cheese, and chopped green onions on top. Drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving.
