SKILLET FLANK STEAK RECIPES

Steps:

• "Heat the oven to 400 degrees. If possible, set your rack in the center of your oven.Season the steak generously with salt and pepper. Heat your skillet on high heat until very hot. Add the oil. Place the steak in the middle of your pan and sear for 2 minutes. Flip and sear for an extra 2 minutes. Both sides should be well browned.Place the skillet inside the oven and cook for an extra 5 minutes for medium rare or a little longer for medium. Remove the meat from the oven, or stovetop, and place on a carving board. Cover it loosely with some aluminum foil and let it rest for a few minutes.Cut the beef thinly and on the diagonal. Use a sharp knife to have an even cut. Serve it and drizzle it with chimichurri sauce."

Steps:

• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to skillet, and swirl to coat. Sprinkle both sides of steak evenly with 1½ teaspoons of the salt and 1 teaspoon of the pepper. Cook steak in hot skillet, flipping about every 2 minutes, until a thermometer inserted in thickest portion of meat registers 125°F (for medium-rare), 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer steak to a cutting board; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest 10 minutes. 
• While steak rests, pulse parsley, cilantro, shallot, vinegar, garlic, and remaining ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper in a food processor until finely chopped, about 10 pulses, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. With processor running, slowly pour remaining ½ cup oil through food chute until mixture is thoroughly combined but still chunky, about 10 seconds. 
• Cut steak diagonally against the grain into ¼-inch-thick slices, and arrange on a platter. Serve with roasted potatoes and herb sauce.
