Flank Steak on Goat Cheese on Toast
The flank steak is marinated in red chili flakes, smoked paprika, olive oil, salt and pepper.
Toppings included goat cheese, roasted red bell peppers and a balsamic fig and onion “jam” that I found at the market.
You can substitute with any sweet-savory jam or chutney. Mango chutney would be wonderful too. I have a list of recipes for jams at the end of the post.
Slice the roasted red bell pepper thinly.
Here’s the grilled flank steak. Notice the grain running left to right? (not the grill marks, but the grain of the meat)
Slice ACROSS the grain.
Slice as thin as you can – the steak is easier to eat!
Flank Steak with Goat Cheese on Toast
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons red chili pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds flank steak (or skirt steak)
- 1 8 oz jar roasted red bell peppers, sliced
- 6 ounces goat cheese
- 1/2 cup fig jam (or your choice of jam/chutney)
- 1-2 loaves baguette
Instructions
- In a resealable bag, mix together the paprika, pepper flakes, olive oil, salt and pepper. Add the steak, seal bag and refrigerate up to overnight.
- To cook the flank steak, heat a grill pan over high heat. Grill the flank steak, turning once, about 8-10 minutes total for medium-rare. Let steak rest before slicing.
- While the steak is resting, slice the bread into thin slices. Toast the bread in the oven if you'd like.
- Slice the steak very thinly (as thin as you can) ACROSS the grain. Top each toast with goat cheese, steak, a couple of red bell pepper slices and/or small spoonful of fig jam.

Hi, Jaden,
I cannot seem to see the actual recipe for the Flank Steak with Goat Cheese on Toast. All I see are the step-by-step photos and commentary. Can you help?
Many thanks,

BTW, you can ignore the 1x 2x 3x that is just a copy paste error and not missing data.
I made these for a 2018 holiday party and they were a huge hit! Everyone loved them. It was my first time making them. I used red pepper jelly instead because I couldn’t find fig jam. And I lightly toasted the baguette so it wasn’t too crunchy. Perfect bite size appetizer.
Thanks Carrie!! Happy New Year 🙂 Jaden
Amazing! Goat cheese and steak always delicious! I had to sub apricot preserves as fig was not available! Oh, my word! This app was the star of the party! I’m definitely making this again for another cocktail/dinner party, grad celebration this week! Thank you!!
Thank you so much Robin! -jaden

It all looks amazing. I can’t wait to try these. Flank steak is so flavorful and the red peppers and fig jam sounds incredible.
Mmm, I love goat cheese… and this looks like an awesome light summery dish. Because it’s already summer where I am. Whew!
What other types of cheese can I use instead of goat cheese? I’m not sure we have it here…
The rice cakes look incredible!
I love the addition of chutney for a sweet flare, and that there’s a lot of flavor packed in to so few ingredients. Thanks for sharing!
Goat cheese makes everything sooo good!
