With Valentine’s Day on a Sunday this year we decided to do something simple with the whole family. This is hands down one of our family favorites. The flavors of the Puerto Rican inspired flank steak paired with my family’s recipe for “South Fork” slaw blend for a remarkably easy yet inspiring meal. As you’ll notice, I haven’t neglected to add quantities for the marinade – it’s just whatever looks good to you. You can’t mess it up!
