Broiled skirt steak

Flank steak is a cut of beef steak taken from the abdominal muscles of the cow, located just behind the plate and in front of the rear quarter. It is a long, flat cut with a significant grain, and is broiled skirt steak for its bold flavor and chewiness. French butchers call the cut bavette, which means “bib”.

Flank steak is used in a variety of dishes including London broil and as an alternative to the traditional skirt steak in fajitas. It can be grilled, pan-fried, broiled, or braised for increased tenderness. This meat-related article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it.
