Ingredients

  • 3 or 4 garlic cloves, peeled
  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • One 2- to 3-pound flank steak or 4 sirloin (New York) strip or ribeye steaks or an equivalent amount of skirt steak
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves

Directions

  1. 1
    If you have a mortar and pestle, pound the garlic with the lemon juice and salt until a paste is formed.
  2. 2
    Otherwise, mince the garlic finely and stir it with the salt into the lemon juice.
  3. 3
    Use the back of a wooden spoon to smash the garlic as much as you can.
  4. 4
    Press the pepper into the steak and then spread the garlic mixture evenly on both sides.
  5. 5
    Let the steak marinate for an hour at room temperature.
  6. 6
    Meanwhile, start a charcoal or gas grill or preheat the broiler; the fire should be moderately hot and the rack about 4 inches from the heat source.
  7. 7
    When ready to cook, brush the melted butter onto the steak and then place on the grill.
  8. 8
    Continue to baste with any remaining butter while the steak is cooking, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  9. 9
    Garnish with the parsley and serve.
