Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lb flank steak
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

- Brush zucchini slices with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Add them to the grill during the last few minutes of cooking until tender.
- Let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
- In a saucepan, bring reserved marinade to a boil and simmer for about 3 minutes until thickened into a glaze.
- Blend feta cheese with heavy cream until smooth.
