In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, honey, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.
Place the flank steak into a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated. Seal the bag, or cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap.
Marinate the steak in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours for the best flavor. Turn the steak occasionally to ensure even marination.
Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature.
Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or skillet to prevent sticking.
Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Reserve the leftover marinade for optional basting (see Step 9).
Place the flank steak on the preheated grill or skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time based on your preferred doneness. Use an instant-read thermometer to guide: 135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium.
Once cooked, transfer the steak to a cutting board. Tent it loosely with aluminum foil and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to retain juices.
Optional: While resting, you can simmer the reserved marinade in a small saucepan for 5 minutes to serve as a sauce.
Slice the steak thinly against the grain for maximum tenderness. Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
