Steak is the quintessential American dinner, available for purchase in most restaurants, diners, and grocery stores.
I know there are a few different ways to approach marinating and cooking a steak so I decided to try recipes from Sunny Anderson, Bobby Flay, and Rachael Ray to see which version I enjoyed the most.
Flay’s recipe was a wine-rosemary grilled flank steak.
Flays recipe recommended marinating the steak for four hours or overnight so I opted to prepare it a day in advance.
The marinade included dry red wine, sprigs of rosemary and thyme, bay leaves, onion, garlic, and olive oil. Advertisement
Anderson’s recipe called for a marinade with some strong flavors.
Andersons marinade called for blending a healthy helping of parsley, cilantro, garlic, red onion, paprika, vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a food processor.
The ingredients quickly transformed into an aromatic, flavorful green sauce. I thought the marinade was filled with herbs and spices that go well together and would add salt, spice, and heat to the steak. Advertisement

About 20 minutes before grilling, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let sit, covered, at room temperature. Heat your grill to high. Brush the steaks on both sides with oil and season liberally with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on the grill and cook until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes.

Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, combine black pepper, red pepper flakes and salt. Rub one side of each steak with the mixture.
