Ingredients

Scale

1 (2 pound) flat iron steak

2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley

1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary

1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh chives

1/4 cup Cabernet Sauvignon

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon dry mustard powder

Instructions

1. Place steak inside a large resealable bag.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic, parsley, rosemary, chives, red wine, salt, pepper, and mustard powder.

3. Pour the marinade over the steak in the bag. Press out air and seal.

4. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.

5. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

6. Place steak in the hot skillet (discard marinade) and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.

7. Allow the steak to rest for 5 minutes on a cutting board before slicing against the grain.

Notes

Always slice against the grain for maximum tenderness.

Use a high-quality dry red wine like Cabernet or Merlot.

Ensure the skillet is very hot before adding the meat to get a perfect crust.
