Grilled Flank Steak - topped with Balsamic marinated Red Onion and Tomatoes

1- 2 pound lean flank steak

2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil (light)

3 tablespoons of Balsamic vinegar

3 cups of diced fresh tomatoes (whatever variety of tomatoes you prefer)

1/2 of a red onion, diced

1 clove of fresh garlic, chopped

2 teaspoons of Garlic powder (divided)

salt and pepper

In a bowl combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper and red onion - let that sit for about 20 minutes to marinate.

Then in a separate bowl combine the fresh garlic, tomatoes, salt and pepper - mix together and that can hang out for about 10 minutes - then add it to the red onion mixture.

The put the flank steak on a cookie sheet and poke holes on both sides using a fork. Then sprinkle 1 teaspoon of garlic powder on each side as well as salt and pepper.

Heat your grill - once the grill is hot place the flank steak on the grill and cook for about 7 to 8 minutes on each side. Then remove from grill and let it sit for about 3 to 5 minutes.

While the steak is on the grill I put the onion/tomato mixture in a saucepan over medium heat so it can warm before putting over the steak.

Then once the steak has rested cut at a diagonal and top with even amounts of the tomato/onion mixture.

Enjoy!!!!
