Meanwhile, prepare a grill for direct cooking over high heat.
Cook steak directly over the flame, flipping halfway through cooking, until well browned. This is about 3-5 minutes per side to cook a thin flank or skirt steak medium-rare. Adjust cooking time accordingly depending on the thickness of your steak and desired doneness.
Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest for at least 5 minutes. Slice the steak across the grain and serve.
