Simple Tip!
Add the tablespoon of oil to the pan and let this heat up for 1 minute.
Add the steak, frying on each side for 3 minutes, or to desired doneness.
Elise Bauer
3 minutes per side will yield approximately medium rare doneness for an average cut of flank steak.
Carne asada and skirt steak will need less time.
If the pan starts to smoke too much, reduce the heat to medium-high.

You want the steak browned, not burned.
Remove from pan and let sit, tented with foil, for 5 minutes.
Cook for 5 to 6 minutes total.

Slice across the grain into thin slices.
If you slice the meat at an angle, you will be able to get your slices pretty thin.
