Marinated Reverse Sear Flank Steak

When you want a full-flavor flank steak that is made with little hands on time, this Reverse Sear Flank Steak recipe is perfect. We start by slow cooking the steak in the oven, and then give it a quick sear in a hot skillet. This locks in all the juices, and creates an irresistible crispy crust.
