Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs flank steak
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced into rounds
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

- 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions
- Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and paprika in a dish. Marinate the flank steak for at least 30 minutes.
- Pour balsamic vinegar and honey into a saucepan; reduce over medium heat until thickened.
- Toss tomatoes with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Let sit to enhance juiciness.
- Heat grill until hot; grill the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
