 I can't tell you enough how much I loved this flank steak! I've had this recipe on file for a couple of years and finally got around to making it. I was still able to use cherry tomatoes from my garden and it was fantastic! As far as I'm concerned, if there's Sherry Wine Vinegar in a recipe, it will be a winner. Sadly, my cherry tomatoes are now finished for this growing season. If I make this herb-crusted flank steak again, it will have to be with purchased grocery store tomatoes.
