Prepare a 1 kg pork flank steak for cooking.

Heat a 5 mm thick metal plate or grill pan until hot.

If you don't have a metal plate, you can use a skillet with a bit of olive oil.

Cut the pork flank steak in half to create two pieces.

Make shallow cuts on the surface of the pork to help it cook evenly.

Add a bit more olive oil to the hot plate before placing the pork on it.

Cook the pork on the hot plate for 5-6 minutes on each side until cooked through.

While the pork cooks, prepare the toppings: slice red onion, green onion, and bell pepper into julienne strips.

Add the sliced vegetables to the pork on the hot plate and season with salt and black pepper.

Top the pork with blue cheese and drizzle honey over it.

Let the cheese melt slightly while the pork finishes cooking.

Serve the pork with the melted cheese and vegetables on top.
