0 Select a container that is large enough to fit your flank steak comfortably, ideally one with a fitting lid.  Alternatively, you can also use a resealable plastic bag.
1 Add in ¼ cup of olive oil, ⅓ cup of soy sauce, ¼ cup of apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon of honey, 3 cloves of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika, ½ teaspoon of ground cumin, ½ teaspoon of kosher salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Whisk to combine.
2 Add the flank steak and ensure that the whole piece is submerged in the marinade.
3 Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, but no longer than 24 hours.
To Cook it on the Grill:
4 When ready to cook, preheat a gas grill to 500°F.
5 Scrape the grill grates to remove any possible food residue. Dip a wad of paper towel into a bowl of oil and coat the grates generously with the oil.
6 Remove the flank steak from the marinade, letting the excess marinade drip off. Discard the marinade.
7 Place the meat on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for rare (internal temperature is 130 to 135 °F), 4-5 minutes on each side for medium (internal temperature is 136 to 145 °F), or 5-6 minutes on each side for medium-well (internal temperature is 146 to 155 °F).
8 When it reaches your desired doneness, transfer the grilled flank steak to a platter and cover it with foil.
9 Let it rest for 5 minutes, and then slice it against the grain. Serve while still warm.
To Broil in The Oven
14 Set your oven to the "broil" setting on high. For the best results, place the oven rack in the upper third section, about 5-6 inches from the heat source.
12 Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set a wire rack over it.
13 Remove the steak from the marinade and let the excess drip off before transferring it to your prepared sheet pan. Broil for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
15 Transfer the steak to a plate, cover loosely with foil, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
On The Stove Top
17 Place a large cast-iron skillet over medium high heat and heat it until sizzling hot.
18 Remove the marinated flank steak from the marinade, making sure to remove any excess. Transfer it onto a clean plate and pat dry with a paper towel to remove as much of the liquid as possible.
19 Transfer the steak to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes or until nicely browned. Flip the steak and cook for another 3-5 minutes, depending on the level of doneness you prefer.
