Ingredients
1.5 lbs flank steak
1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or a large zip-top bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is completely and evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight for maximum tenderness.
When ready to cook, remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes. Wipe off the excess yogurt marinade with a paper towel.
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Once very hot, add the steak and sear for 5 to 7 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F for medium-rare.
Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain before serving.
