This Flank Steak with Herbed Salsa is a fresh and flavorful dish that delivers big taste with minimal effort. The steak is seared to perfection—charred on the outside and juicy on the inside—then sliced thin against the grain for tenderness in every bite.
It’s topped with a zesty herbed salsa made from ripe tomatoes, scallions, cilantro, jalapeño, and citrus juice, bringing a bold, tangy kick that brightens up the savory richness of the beef. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or casual gathering, this dish pairs beautifully with grilled veggies, rice, or a side of warm tortillas.
