Follow The Directions

01

Step

Immerse the flat iron steak in a bath of dry and sweet vermouth within a resealable bag or shallow dish, ensuring every fiber is kissed by the aromatic elixir. Seal or cover, then patiently allow the flavors to meld in the refrigerator for a minimum of 6 hours, or preferably overnight. (Marinating time: 6+ hours)

02

Step

Awaken your skillet over medium heat with the embrace of olive oil, coaxing it to a shimmering warmth. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

03

Step

Gently remove the steak from its vermouth slumber, bidding farewell to the marinade. Bestow upon both sides a generous dusting of red pepper flakes, igniting a subtle fire within. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

04

Step

With confident precision, lay the steak upon the heated skillet, allowing it to sizzle and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side, achieving a perfect medium-rare. Adjust cooking time to your desired degree of doneness. (Cooking time: 6-8 minutes)

05

Step

Grant the steak a moment of rest, allowing its juices to redistribute, culminating in a symphony of flavor and tenderness with each slice. (Rest time: 5 minutes)

For an intensified depth of flavor, consider incorporating a whisper of garlic or a sprig of fresh rosemary into the marinade.
Pair this culinary masterpiece with a robust red wine, such as a Cabernet Sauvignon or a Merlot, to further enhance the symphony of flavors.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to match your heat preference.
