Description
This flavorful marinated Bavette steak is perfect for grilling and packed with taste.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 pounds Bavette steak (flap meat steak)
- 1 cup orange juice
- 3–4 cloves garlic (minced)
- ½ cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ – 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Set out a large zip bag, or a baking dish for a marinade. Combine the orange juice, minced garlic, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper in the bag or dish. Mix well.
- Place the Bavette steak in the bag and zip tightly. Refrigerate for at least one hour but up to 24 hours.
- When ready to cook, remove the Bavette steak from the marinade and allow it to dry for at least 30 minutes.
- Set an extra-large cast-iron skillet (or cast iron griddle) over high heat.
- Once the pan is hot, add the butter and oil to the skillet. Once melted, sear the Bavette steak for 4 to 5 minutes per side, making sure the surface of the steak is in full contact with the pan for best caramelization.
- Allow the steak to rest for 3 to 5 minutes before cutting and serving. When ready to slice, turn the steak so that each slice is cut against the grain. Slice and serve with your favorite steak sauce.
Notes
- For best results, marinate the steak overnight.
- Adjust crushed red pepper to taste for spiciness.
