You can counteract that next time by using the fresh garlic as a flavor only and be sure to scrape any leftover bits off the steak before cooking. That length of time on a flank steak sounds way too long.

I'm not a Brussels sprouts fan, but sounds like you nailed those. And I love potatoes the way you describe. Next time, try it with fresh thyme or rosemary (or both) instead of oregano.
You are correct! Girlfriend put in some lime juice-not good for steak.

I love fresh rosemary and forgot to buy a little container last time at store. I usually have fresh basil cilantro, and rosemary on hand. I don't use thyme and not sure why not. I like the flavor as well.

Z.2) Look into a vacuume marinator.. Just do it. It's prolly less than your knife...
3) I'm going to make those Brussels Sprouts!

What did I do?!?! One of my everyday chef's knives is a Victorinox I picked up for $40.

If you go less, will need to get the pan hotter to get a sufficient sear. Flank is thin enough you don't want it to even sniff the inside of an oven.
Funny thing was it had nice sear on it when it went in the oven but the over-marinating caused it to wet up in the oven and loose some of it's sear. It's the main reason I over cooked it as it appeared underdone when the sear faded. I didn't trust my instincts on time!

Lime actually is awesome with steak (IMO), but it's definitely acidic enough you could over-marinate. I probably wouldn't marinate more than 30 minutes or so.

Sat overnight-too long. Live and learn for next time.

I'm always willing to try something new.......

Not trying to insult your intelligence or anything, so please don't take offense at my questions. Did you remember to dry the steak before you seared it?

I'm thinking about the acidity you mention. I think over-marinating would just leave it mushy. Sounds like she just had too much lime juice in the marinade.

Oh, don't try to convince me that I didn't need the $35,000 in therapy that I've sat through since you LOL'd at my Wal-Mart knife...

Oh, and $40 get's you three knives at Wally-World! You can defend the whole trailer park with that much fire power...

And you're now telling me you're sporting high-end Swiss steel..... What's next, you driving something European too?

Oh yeah, that was your problem. Don't judge lime as a marinade ingredient in this. Try again when you're up for it, but don't go over 30 minutes. And be sure to use fresh juice, none of that bottled crap.

Good luck, and please let me know if you like it better.

Our favorite marinade for flank steak is oil, soy, and white vinegar in a 4:1:1 ratio. Add several good shakes of garlic powder. Marinate for 24 to 48 hours. The acidity is significant, but it works.

That vinegar doesn't break down the steak too far? I'd think the outside of the steak would get mushy.

Nope. We always grill it, then slice it thin (1/8 to 1/4 inch) before serving. We've been doing this marinade in my family since the late 1960s. I've had it well over 100 times.

It's funny you mention this! I was telling the girlfriend how I needed half a roll of paper towels to dry off the meat before I seared it.

I let it come to room temperature for nearly 45 minutes, put it on the cutting board with about 5-6 paper towels underneath and then patted it dry with another 5-6 on top. It was just really juicy from the marinade sucking in so much.

Next time I'm going to try a dry rub! Probably Southwestern style

I've driven Audi, Porsche, Chevy, Ford, Dodge, VW, Honda, Toyota, and Kia [**** I'm old!!!]... So far, I like them all better than walking.

The only rides that I didn't like (as much) were military "rides" they always kick you out (Sub, plane, Helos, or fast-boats) and then the walking sucks...

Oh, and one other thing I've learned in my useless life......no katana is better than a decent cantina....

Yup, flank steak sliced thin is the way to go in our house.

Our family marinade is soy, ketchup, sesame oil and onion. I might need to try adding a tid bit of vinegar and garlic.
