When grill pan is smoking hot, remove steak from marinade and lay it flat on the grill. Let cook for 4-5 minutes, largely undisturbed, pressing down on the meat to enhance grill marks if you wish. After 4-5 minutes, the steak should be lightly charred and no longer adhere to the grill. Lift and rotate steak about 60 degrees to create cross-hatched grill marks; let cook another 2-3 minutes.
