If you don't have chicory coffee, regular ground coffee or espresso works just as well. After grilling, slice the steak against the grain to ensure tender pieces of meat.

I love flank steak. This is by far the easiest and best way to prepare flank steak if you like it kind of spicy - my family loved it! Was not sure about the coffee grounds, since I don't drink coffee, but it was fabulous. Will definitely make this again and again...
