With its flavorful marinade, Julee Wallberg’s flank steak makes a succulent meal. “I received this recipe from a friend, and it’s been a family favorite ever since.”—Julee Wallberg, Salt Lake City, Utah

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons sherry or reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 3/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1 beef flank steak (1-1/2 pounds)

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the first 12 ingredients. Pour 1/3 cup marinade into a shallow dish; add steak and turn to coat. Cover; refrigerate for 1-3 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting.
  2. Lightly coat the grill rack. Grill steak, uncovered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), basting frequently with remaining marinade. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Thinly slice steak across the grain.
