My special recipe combines balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and spices creating a simple, delicious marinade. My technique yields the most tender and juicy steak.
Ingredients
- 2 flats iron steaks , 1 pound
- 0.25 cups balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
- 4 cloves garlic , minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons dry mustard
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
Instructions
-
1
Place steaks, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, thyme, mustard, and black pepper in an extra large resealable plastic bag, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Knead the bag with your hands to distribute ingredients evenly and completely coat the steaks. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Preheat grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove steaks from refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

3
Remove steaks from bag and discard marinade.

4
Cook steaks on the preheated grill until they start to firm and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 6 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove steaks to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Hot Corn Dip
This mixture of corn, diced tomatoes, cream cheese and spices is a great hot and easy appetizer. I crave it all the time!!!!! Serve it with tortilla chips.
Spelt Pizza Dough
Top this spelt pizza dough with your favorite pizza toppings. Spelt is an ancient grain that's related to modern wheat, but it's actually an entirely different species. From what I hear, it's easier to digest, higher in protein and fiber, and to me at least, it has a much better flavor and texture than other whole wheat flours.
Shrimp and Orzo Salad
There are so many shapes of pasta out there. One of my favorites is orzo: rice-shaped pasta. I do not see it used as often as its more popular relatives like spaghetti, penne, linguine et al, which is a shame. I love the fact that orzo can be treated like rice and used to make tomato-based (jollof) or stir-fried dishes. It can be creamy like a risotto or made like rice and served with a stew or sauce. Here I use it to make a cold salad with shrimp and sweet cherry tomatoes. Use a lot of garden-fresh herbs to elevate this salad and feel free to add more vegetables if you want.
