Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh rosemary. This will be your marinade for the steak.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Steak

    Place the flat iron steak in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it's evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for better flavor.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    If using a grill, preheat it to high heat. If using a skillet, heat it over medium-high heat and add a little olive oil to the pan.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak

    Once the grill or pan is hot, remove the steak from the marinade and place it on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature (130°F for medium-rare).

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes on a cutting board. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

  6. 6

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
