For the Flank Steak:
- 1.5 lb flank steak
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 3 Tablespoons soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil

For the Whipped Feta:
- 8 ounces feta cheese (in the brine)
- 3 Tablespoons heavy cream or milk
- Marinate the Flank Steak: Combine Dijon, garlic, onion powder, soy sauce, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar in a bag. Season steak, add to marinade, and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
- Grill the Steak: Preheat grill, cook steak for 3-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Grill zucchini slices brushed with oil and salt for 2-3 minutes per side.
- Make the Balsamic Glaze: Boil reserved marinade in a saucepan until it thickens into a glaze.
- Prepare the Whipped Feta: Blend feta and cream until smooth.
- Assemble and Serve: Brush glaze on steak, slice thinly, plate with whipped feta, grilled zucchini, and remaining glaze.
Notes
- Make sure to let the steak rest before slicing to retain juices.
- You can adjust the balsamic glaze consistency by adding more vinegar as needed.
