Flat Iron Steak

Description

This delicious flat iron steak was created from a combination of different recipes that I read. I combined, adjusted, and finally perfected the marinade and cooking time to my taste. I'm sure you will love it as well. After all, it is perfection!

Ingredients:

• 1 (2 pound) flat iron steak
• 2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
• 1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
• 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
• 1/4 cup Cabernet Sauvignon (or other dry red wine)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard powder

Steps:

1. Place steak inside a large resealable bag. Stir olive oil, garlic, parsley, rosemary, chives, red wine, salt, pepper, and mustard powder together in a small bowl.
2. Pour marinade over steak in the bag. Press out as much air as you can and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear and cook the steak in the hot skillet for 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium rare, or to your desired degree of doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium rare.
4. Discard the marinade. Allow the steaks to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
