Grilled Flank Steak Caprese with Balsamic Dressing


  • Author: Chef Lalybeth

Description

A fresh and hearty main course that combines juicy grilled flank steak with the classic flavors of a Caprese salad, all drizzled with a rich balsamic glaze.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1.5 lb flank steak
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 large tomatoes, sliced
  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp honey

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Pat the flank steak dry and rub with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  2. Grill the steak for 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
  3. While the steak rests, arrange the tomato and mozzarella slices on a platter. In a small saucepan, simmer balsamic vinegar and honey for 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Top the tomato and mozzarella with the sliced steak and fresh basil leaves. Drizzle the entire platter with the balsamic dressing and serve immediately.

Notes

You can customize the seasonings to taste.
