You can really use any type of steak you like. This would be fantastic made with rib eye, London broil, sirloin or chuck roast. If you choose a tender cut of meat, the cooking process will be quite short. If you select a cut such as a chuck roast then you will need to cook the meat longer in the sauce so that it tenderizes it. I decided to make this with flank steak as it is a tender cut of meat that can be cooked quickly.
