Grilled Flank Steak

Flank Steak Marinade:
1/2 cup Vegetable Oil
1 Tablespoon Yellow Mustard
1/4 cup Red wine vinegar
Crushed Black Peppercorn
1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
Juice Of 1 lemon
1/3 Cup Soy Sauce

Place flank steak in a large ziplock bag and add all marinade ingredients.  Marinate in the fridge for about 2 hours.

Prepare grill the grill!  Stack coals, light, and let coals become a bit ashy for 15 minutes.  Add grill grate and brush on oil.  Let grill grate preheat 15 minutes.

While the grill is getting hot, get all your favorite fajita toppings ready.  I cooked peppers and onions on the stove, microwaved some flour tortillas, diced tomato, avocado, lettuce, shredded cheese, and put out the sour cream, salsa, and hot sauce.  

When the grill is at medium-high heat grill the flank steak about *10 minutes per side.  This time will change based on the thickness of your flank steak and your doneness preference!  Our flank steak was very thick, about 2 inches thick, and was over 2 lbs.  

Let rest 5 minutes.  Slice on diagonal and serve with your favorite fajita toppings!  



Leftover flank steak made steak quesadillas for lunch with Zantaran's Spanish rice on the side.



Leftover flank steak dinner with mashed potatoes, spinach with mushrooms, and corn.

Raku

Last night our friends had reservations for Raku and invited us along. We went to the Bethesda location but there is also a location near Dupont Circle and in Arlington. http://www.rakuasiandining.com/ They only had chopsticks at the table and I'm terrible at using them Luckily everyone else at the table was great at using chopsticks. When our friends were served the tofu salad (this looked good and you must love seaweed) they brought them forks but they used chopsticks and I scored a fork :) Our friends also ordered some spring rolls but the spring rolls on the menu seemed to come with shrimp which I dont eat. The dipping sauces that came with their rolls looked really good. The presentation of the dish was really nice They split an entree which was a bento box with beef tenderloin with pomegranate wine sauce (they said the sauce was divine) and an assortment of fish, tempura veggies, some mushrooms etc. It was a huge box of food My husband and I ordered 8 tempura green bean s...
