This was supposed to be a Frittata Friday. However, I've been marinating some flat-iron steaks in a mixture of extra virgin olive oil, Merlot, garlic, rosemary, green onions, and a bit of salt & freshly ground black pepper; for the past 4 days. I've heard about flat-iron steaks before, but I've never had one before, so I wasn't sure how this would turn out. They were on sale, so what better time to try them. The only thing I knew for sure was, not to cook it beyond medium rare. This is a steak that comes from the chuck, and they can be tough. Without a doubt, this was the best steak I've had in a while!!! I'm not sure if it was the long marination, or the fact that I followed the guidelines, and cooked it to a beautiful, and tender, medium rare; but served up with a salad, this was better than any frittata that I could have come up with. I think I've found my new favorite cut of beef, and I love a rib-eye steak, but this was better. I love it when an experiment turns out this well! :-)
