Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, whisk together minced garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, chopped parsley, lemon juice, dried oregano, and ground cumin until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Steak

    Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight for maximum flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 450°F to 500°F).

  2. 4

    Season the Steak

    Remove the flank steak from the marinade and discard the marinade. Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  3. 5

    Grill the Steak

    Place the steak on the preheated grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F to 135°F. Adjust cooking time based on desired doneness.

  4. 6

    Rest the Steak

    Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute for a more tender steak.

Serving

  1. 7

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the flank steak against the grain into thin strips. Serve with lemon wedges and fresh chimichurri sauce on the side.
