I had never done a steak with coffee before and decided to try it!

I'm a Starbucks barista who loves coffee and I'm always looking for new ways to enjoy my favorite roast.

Best grilled steak

Our friend, V. made flank steak for us when we went for dinner several years ago. We now make flank steak every summer at our cottage and it is always very tasty! I use 1/4 cup of all ingredients to make enough marinade for 2 large flank steaks.

I Was in a sweet & spicy Mood and Was Craving Steak as well

A portion of the enchilada sauce is saved for basting rather than reusing the marinade. It is acceptable to use a marinade for a glaze or sauce after marinating by bringing the marinade to a boil for atleast 5 minutes before reusing, however it is not the preferred method for food service nor the best practice to teach.

Flank steak is not the most luxurious meat. Tenderize prior to preparing to make this a truly wonderful dish. Serve with roasted potatoes prepared with EVOO, sea salt, pepper, and rosemary. An extra dry martini pairs extremely well with this dish!

As a kid, the only steaks I knew were soy marinated. In fact, I don't think I tasted a steak that hadn't been doused in soy sauce and black pepper until my early teens. It was just the way it was with my family. In the years since, I've discovered the joys of enhancing my steaks with various rubs, sauces, and condiments, with my three favourites being horseradish mayo, blue cheese sauce, and tangy chimichurri. Well, tonight was steak night in our house, and I thought it was time to revisit my childhood staple. Rather than simply combining soy and pepper, though, I decided to kick the flavours up slightly. Sweet chili sauce and brown sugar brought sweetness and heat, ponzu added a little acid, and garlic added bite. The end result was familiar, but better.

I'm lazy but never to make a sauce to top some dinner steak off. 🐮🌰🌾

Tasty
