Add the flank steaks and turn them in the marinade to coat, then cover the baking pan and refrigerate the steaks for at least 2 hours or overnight. Preheat the broiler. Transfer the steaks to a plate. Discard the marinade from the baking pan; scrape the marinade off the steaks. Season them with salt and pepper. Set the steaks on a baking sheet and broil about 6 inches from the heat for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Let the steaks rest at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes. Thinly slice the steaks and serve with Stewed Tomatoes with Ginger. Suggested Pairing Try a Gigondas from the southern Rhône. The gamy Syrah grapes make it big enough to stand up to the grilled meat.
