“This recipe was magic and very forgiving. Marinated the flank steak overnight. Couldn’t grill because the wing chill was horrendous! Cooked steak in a 12” non-stick skillet very hot. Came out perfect with a nice brown crust and medium rare. Made the pico witho” — a cook
“ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I used this as a marinade for flank steak and let it marinate overnight and it turned out awesome !! Grilled it and served it with roasted rosemary potatoes. This marinade is a keeper!! Thank you again Holly for a wonderful recipe!!!” — a cook, 5★
