Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 flank steak or skirt steak, or steak of choice, about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds

Instructions

  • In a shallow dish, whisk together the vinegar, oil, garlic, brown sugar, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add the steak and turn to coat.
  • Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, and up to 4 hours.
  • Pull the steak from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Coat an outdoor grill or stove-top grill pan with cooking spray and preheat to medium-high. Add the steak (discard the marinade) and cook for 5 to 8 minutes per side for medium-rare (135 degrees), or until you reach your desired level of doneness. Remember the steak will continue to cook and rise 5 degrees once you remove it from the heat.
  • Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Thinly slice the steak, against the grain, and serve.
