  1. I made this exact recipe with instant pot now when I click on that pin it’s gone. I just can’t remember how long to cook the meat in IP. can you help? Thanks!

    1. Angie thanks for your question! We actually unpublished that recipe very recently as many people were having a lot of issues with it coming out overcooked and tough. From our research, we have discovered that that particular cut of meat doesn’t do super well in the pressure cooker, so we took it down per a lot of user feedback. The original instructions though were to: Set on meat/stew setting or set manually for 35 minutes. You might try a bit lower in time though if you do indeed decide to make it in your Instant Pot. Does that help or make sense? We are always here and happy to help!

      1. I have made this recipe a couple of times and it’s turned out great. I tend to use a London broil (cut a little thicker than traditional flank steak), add at least 2 thinly-sliced onions, and leave the marinade in while cooking.

  2. Hi all! I tried this recipe and it turned out TOTALLY AWESOME! I read the comments prior to my starting to cook it and made a few tweaks. Since I was just cooking for “2”, I only used 1.02 lbs of flank steak, keeping all other ingredients as shown. Then, being from Texas and loving TexMex, I added a half a can of Rotel Tomatoes with chilis and peppers. I cooked it using High Pressure, and set the timer on my instant pot to 10 minutes. Even though I had to keep it on the “Keep Warm” cycle for an hour because my husband got home late, it was DYNAMITE! My hubby said it was one of the best meals he had had in a long time…this coming from a guy who’s not that much into Beef! Now THAT’S saying something! Definitely keeping this in my permanent recipe file. I served it with Green Giant Tuscan Broccoli steamers, covered in Chile Con Queso from Herdez and Spanish Rice from Knorr Swiss (fka Lipton). Bon Appetite!!

  3. I am making it now. I just made the marinade and placed the meat in a bag to marinate for 8 hrs. I am looking at the directions and they say in #4 – Whisk together the remaining ingredients. What ingredients? Was I only supposed to use half of the marinade recipe to marinate the meat?

    Thank you for your help.

    1. It looks like those have gotten out of order. You were correct to mix all of the ingredients together and marinate for 8 hours.
