Balsamic Grilled Flank Steak Caprese is a fresh and flavorful dish that pairs juicy grilled flank steak with the classic Caprese combination of tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella, all tied together with a tangy balsamic drizzle. It’s hearty yet light, making it perfect for summer dinners or gatherings.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella, sliced
  • 1 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Season flank steak generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Grill steak for 5–7 minutes per side, depending on thickness and preferred doneness.
  4. Remove steak from grill and let rest for 10 minutes.
  5. While steak rests, combine cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil in a bowl.
  6. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, then toss gently.
  7. Slice steak thinly against the grain.
  8. Arrange steak slices on a platter and top with Caprese mixture.

Notes

  • Marinate flank steak in olive oil, garlic, and balsamic vinegar for 1 hour before grilling for extra flavor.
  • Swap cherry tomatoes with heirloom tomatoes for more color.
  • Use burrata instead of mozzarella for creaminess.
  • Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze for bolder sweetness.
