Fleica
- 3 or 4 garlic cloves, peeled
- Juice of 2 lemons
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- One 2- to 3-pound flank steak or 4 sirloin (New York) strip or ribeye steaks or an equivalent amount of skirt steak
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
- If you have a mortar and pestle, pound the garlic with the lemon juice and salt until a paste is formed.
- Otherwise, mince the garlic finely and stir it with the salt into the lemon juice.
- Use the back of a wooden spoon to smash the garlic as much as you can.
- Press the pepper into the steak and then spread the garlic mixture evenly on both sides.
- Let the steak marinate for an hour at room temperature.
- Meanwhile, start a charcoal or gas grill or preheat the broiler; the fire should be moderately hot and the rack about 4 inches from the heat source.
- When ready to cook, brush the melted butter onto the steak and then place on the grill.
- Continue to baste with any remaining butter while the steak is cooking, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
- Garnish with the parsley and serve.
