Cook the Flank Steak
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated flank steak and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest before slicing.
Cooking Rice and Beans

Cook the Rice
In a saucepan, combine the white rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
