Garlic Flank Steak With Onions

Trim off any fat from steak. Make 1/2-inch deep slits 1 inch apart over top of steak; insert garlic sliver into each. Place in shallow dish. Sprinkle with basil; pour vinegar over top, turning steak to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, arrange onions in center of lightly greased broiling pan; remove 2 tbs of the marinade and brush over onions. Bake in 400F 200C oven for 20-25 minutes or until softened.

Discard marinade, sprinkle steak with 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper. Place steak on onions; broil for 8 minutes. Turn steak and broil for 3-5 minutes longer or until desired doneness. Transfer steak and onions to serving platter; tent with foil and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing thinly on the diagonal.

Pop potatoes and squash halves into the oven while the steak marinates, and serve with a cabbage salad dressed with vinaigrette.
