Ingredients

1 flank steak (about 1 3/4 pound)

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons sweet paprika

2 tablespoon light brown sugar

1 tablespoons kosher salt

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 lime, zested

Directions

  1. Preheat a broiler to high. Bring the steaks to room temperature about 20 minutes before cooking.
  2. Mix the olive oil, paprika, sugar, chili powder, salt, chili powder, and zest in a bowl to make a paste. Rub the spice mixture all over the steak. Broil until just charred and crispy on top, about 6 minutes on 1 side. Flip the steak and cook until beginning to char, about 6 minutes more or until rare and temperature registers 115 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Place the steak on a cutting board and let rest, tented with foil for about 10 minutes. Slice across the grain and serve.

I found the printed version of this recipe from more than a decade ago and decided to make it again. It was still as great as I remember, and so easy! Following the directions exactly, using flank steak as directed, and using my cast iron in the broiler yielded a delicious and fancy-feeling Thursday night dinner. Petition to bring this recipe back into the limelight!
