Name: Grilled Flank Steak and Red Onion with Orange Gremolata
Yield: Serves 2
Ingredients: a 3/4-pound piece flank steak; four 1/3-inch-thick slices red onion, secured with wooden picks; 1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar; 1/4 cup olive oil; 1 small garlic clove, minced; 2 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves, minced; 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated orange zest

Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Gremolata, an Italian garnish traditionally made with minced fresh parsley, garlic, and lemon zest and served with osso buco, adds a fresh flavor to grilled meats. For a slightly different taste, we've used orange zest.
