If your hanger steak is a large piece, you may cut it into two main pieces for easier handling. Place the steak pieces into a large plastic zip-top bag.
⏱️ 2 min - 3
Pour the prepared marinade over the steak in the bag. Seal the bag, pressing out any excess air. Gently massage the bag to ensure the marinade evenly coats the steak. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least a few hours, or preferably overnight.

Broil the steak for 4-6 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for internal temperature (e.g., 130-135°F for medium-rare).

Once cooked, remove the steak from the broiler and transfer it to a cutting board. Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
