the soy marinated flank steak recipe calls for grilling but I don't have a grill. should I abandon the recipe or is there ancther way tocook

A marinade with acid will cut into fiberous flank steak/london broil. Skirt (my favorite)and flank are my go to quick meat choices when broiling whole cuts. I've never braised a flank steak though. Recipe, Lazaro?

So glad this worked out for you Bliss.

So happy it turned out well!!

Hello foodie friends!
I decided to broil the steaks in the marinade sauce that I had made and it came out beautifully. Tender and delicious. It was a hit. Thanks so much for all your advice!

I disagree, Lazaro Cooks. Flank steak works very well grilled or broiled and sliced properly, as discussed earlier in this thread. I've never braised flank steak, so I can't comment on how well it works.

i just want to second the broiling method over the sear-and-bake method, which i think could toughen a quick-cooking cut like flank steak. broiler's also fantastic for sturdy fish and chicken breasts.

Think of a broiler as a 'reverse grill', with the heat element on the top instead of the bottom.
Then use the same rules and time for broiling as grilling. Have a wire rack and dip pan for your broiling.

Depending on the broiler you have...about 3-4 inches is a height for the surface of the meat to the broiler.
Keep the oven door open because some broilers shut off when oven temp reaches a certain point--for broiling steaks you want it always on during the broiling.

Thank you so much! How long do I broil for?

Either broiling or searing and then baking is a good substitute. The flank steak will be delicious. I often use either method when the weather makes it unpleasant to grill. As Lazaro Cooks points out, pay attention to the slicing.

Bliss, it can be ust as good as grilling! If you want a crust, take Cath's suggestion by pan-searing very hot on the stove-top and pop in the oven, or broil like I do, and Phyllis suggested. Go for it!

Will it be as good as grilling? thanks so much!

Sear it really hot on both sides in a cast iron pan until they've got that nice crust, then finish it in the oven for a few minutes until it's done.

You can certainly broil it.
