If you are looking for a classic steakhouse meal with a healthy homemade recipe, this Grilled Flat Iron Steak is for you. A flat iron cut packs a punch when it comes to flavor and simplicity.
People get this idea that cooking homemade suppers every single night is complicated. And let’s be real, it’s so easy these days (especially if you don’t have kids) to run out and grab a quick bite after a long day in the office. The daily grind can really kill the kitchen mojo and make skipping out for a cocktail, and something pre-made can be rather tempting.
But let’s be honest; it’s pretty rare that a steak recipe comes off the line as well as any type of steak seared at home. It’s certainly not as fresh. A great cut of beef and a trusty grill will get you the best steak you’ve ever had in no time.
Serve grilled flat iron steak in thin strips and toss it into summer salads with grilled watermelon. It’s great over pasta or vegetable noodles tossed in marinara for a keto / low-carb / whole30 compliant meal. We love it with a great aioli recipe and fries, chopped for tacos, in sandwiches, wraps, over stir-fried veggies and any where you would use beef slices.
Store your steak in a resealable plastic bag or an air tight container. Be sure to remove excess air from either. Steak will keep in the fridge for about 4-5 days.
To reheat it, wrap just the few slices you need in foil and pop it in an oven preheated to 325 degrees F for 5 to 10 minutes. Leftover steak is never as good as the day it’s made but it can be used up in a variety of ways. A common favorite way to enjoy it is by heating it up in some quick and easy steak tacos or minced into scrambled eggs.
