  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 beef flank steak (about 1 1/4 lb)

    When ready to cook steak, heat gas or charcoal grill. When grill is heated, remove steak from marinade; pour marinade into measuring cup. Place steak on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill over medium coals; cover grill. Cook 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with marinade, until steak are desired doneness. Discard any remaining marinade. Let steak stand on platter 5 minutes; cut diagonally across grain into slices. If desired, garnish with cherry tomatoes and red onion slices.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    An alternative to the plastic bag for marinating the steak would be to use a 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap.
