The fumes from the blender may make your eyes tear up like you're watching a sad movie. But once you taste the end result – a juicy and tender flank steak – they'll turn to tears of joy. Trust me! This is a delicious grilled flank steak recipe that melts in your mouth.
Somehow, just onion and water makes a gluten-free flank steak flavorful and tender. (Check out the health benefits of onions.) Put the cut-up onion and water into a blender and blend the heck out of it until it is liquid. Pour the onion over the steak and it it marinate at least one hour. When ready to cook the steak, remove it from the onion marinade and season with salt and pepper. Grill the steak on an outdoor or indoor grill until it reaches your desired doneness. You could also pop the flank steak under the broiler.
Variation: If you're not a flank steak fan, try this two-ingredient marinade on ribeye, sirloin or your favorite cut of beef.
Serve this easy flank steak on steak night for a high-protein dinner with your favorite side dishes.

Ingredients
- 1 onion, cut up
- 1 flank steak (about 1 pound)
Here's how to make it:
- Put the onion and 1/2 cup water into a blender. Blend together well. (Love garlic? Add a clove or two into the blender with the onion.)
-
Pour the onion over the steak. Allow to marinate at least 1 hour. (I like to marinate meat in food storage bags, but you could also use an airtight container or shallow baking dish.)
-
Remove steak from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Cook on a hot grill until desired doneness. Allow to rest 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
