Garlic Fennel Flank Steak with Oranges

Garlic Fennel Flank Steak with Oranges
  • 2 tablespoons ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fennel seed
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 4 sprigs rosemary, leaves stripped and bruised
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 orange, juiced
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • 1 (2 pound) flank steak
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
  • 2 oranges, halved


  1. Grind black pepper and fennel seed together in a mortar with a pestle. Pour half the pepper mixture into a small bowl and stir in salt.
  2. Stir remaining pepper mixture, garlic, rosemary, 2 tablespoons olive oil, orange juice, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.
  3. Rub rosemary mixture over both sides of flank steak, poking mixture into steak several times with a fork. Transfer steak to a resealable plastic bag and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Remove steak from marinade; scrape off and discard any excess marinade.
  4. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  5. Sprinkle reserved pepper-fennel mixture over steak. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil over orange halves.
  6. Cook steak on the preheated grill until it begins to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove to a plate to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing across the grain.
  7. Place oranges, flesh-side down, on the grill and cook until flesh is golden and caramelized, 3 to 5 minutes. Place steak and 3 orange halves on a serving platter. Squeeze remaining caramelized orange half over the steak.
