Ingredients

3/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
2 teaspoons garlic chopped
1 1/2 pounds flank steak

Instructions

Combine the soy sauce, olive oil, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and pepper in a resealable bag; seal and shake to combine.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of the marinade for later use. Stir the garlic into the bag of marinade.
Add the steak and marinate for 2-24 hours in your refrigerator.
Heat an outdoor grill or stove top grill pan to medium-high. Place the steak on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of your meat and the desired level of doneness.
Remove the meat from grill and cover with foil. Let stand for 5-10 minutes and then slice thinly against the grain with a very sharp knife. Drizzle with reserved marinade, then serve.

Notes

I typically grill my marinated flank steak, either outdoors on a charcoal grill or inside on a grill pan. You can also bake, pan sear or broil your meat if you prefer.
This recipe makes enough marinade for about 1 1/2 - 2 pounds of meat. If you're cooking for a larger crowd, simply double the marinade amount.
You'll want to scrape the pieces of garlic off the meat before you cook it so that the garlic doesn't burn on the grill.
