MARINATED FLANK STEAK

Well it is cooling off today.  They say mid 90's.  I remember when that was considered Hot!  Still time to get out and cook on the grill.  Keep hydrated and keep cool.

MARINATED FLANK STEAK

2 - 2 1/2 lb Flank Steak
Olive Oil
Rosemary
Arugula
Diced tomatoes (4 Roma Tomatoes)
Shaved Parmesan
Balsamic Vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
Juice of one lemon and olive oil
Salt and pepper

In a plastic bag put 1/2 cup olive oil and some fresh chopped rosemary.  Marinate the flank steak for at least 1/2 hour.  When the grill is hot put the steak on and cook to the desired doneness.  Rare, medium, what ever your family likes.  Medium is best.  While the steak cooks, put 1 cup balsamic vinegar in a small sauce pan with 1 tablespoon of sugar.  Cook until reduced by half.  When the steak is done, remove from the grill and let rest for 8 to 10 minutes.  Slice the steak on the diagonal. Toss the arugula with the juice of one lemon and some olive oil, salt and pepper.  Put a handful of arugula on each plate.  Top with 3 or 4 slices of steak, top with the diced tomatoes, shaved parmesan and drizzle with the balsamic reduction.  Mangia!

Thanks for stopping in today, stay cool
