  • 2 tablespoons olive oil For marinating steak
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or sugar) For the glaze
For the steak and zucchini
  • 1 pound flank steak
  • 2 medium zucchini Sliced for grilling
For the whipped feta
  • 8 ounces feta cheese Crumbled
  • 4 ounces cream cheese Softened
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Mix balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  2. Marinate the flank steak in the mixture for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Prepare whipped feta by blending feta cheese, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, and lemon juice until smooth.
Cooking
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Grill the flank steak for 5-7 minutes on each side until desired doneness, then let it rest.
  3. Grill sliced zucchini for about 2-3 minutes on each side until tender.
  4. Prepare the glaze by combining balsamic vinegar and honey in a saucepan, cooking over low heat until thickened.
Serving
  1. Slice the grilled steak, place it on the grilled zucchini, top with whipped feta, and drizzle with balsamic glaze.

Notes

For best flavor, marinate the steak overnight. Ensure the grill is hot enough for good char. Let the steak rest post-grilling to keep its juices.
