This marinated flat iron steak is a delicious and easy way to enjoy a juicy, flavorful steak. With a simple marinade of balsamic vinegar, dijon mustard, garlic, ginger, and herbs, the steak is full of flavor and perfect for a quick and impressive weeknight dinner or a special occasion.

The flat iron steak is a cut of meat that comes from the shoulder of the cow. It's known for its rich flavor and tenderness, making it a great choice for grilling or pan-searing. In this recipe, we'll be marinating the steak to add even more flavor and juiciness. The balsamic vinegar and dijon mustard provide a tangy and slightly sweet base, while the garlic, ginger, and herbs add a punch of flavor. The longer you can marinate the steak, the more intense the flavors will be.

When it comes to cooking the steak, it's all about getting a nice sear on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and pink. Whether you're using a grill or a cast-iron skillet, make sure it's nice and hot before adding the steak. Cook the steak for just a few minutes on each side, depending on your desired doneness. For a medium-rare steak, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C). Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

This marinated flat iron steak is sure to impress with its bold flavors and juicy texture. It's a great choice for any occasion and can be paired with your favorite sides. So, fire up the grill or skillet and get ready to enjoy a delicious and memorable meal!
