Preheat the barbecue to high heat. Place the flank steak on a baking sheet or plate and season with flaky salt, pepper, chopped rosemary, and tamari. Let marinate at room temperature for 15–20 minutes, or refrigerate if marinating longer than 30 minutes.
In a small cast-iron pan suitable for the grill, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallot, garlic, and garlic scape. Cook slowly until golden and crispy, about 8–10 minutes. At the 10-minute mark, add rosemary and cook for another 2 minutes until crispy. Remove from heat and pour over the sliced chilies in a bowl. Stir in the chives, sesame seeds, and flaky salt. Set aside.
Grill the sourdough slices on the barbecue with a drizzle of olive oil. In a bowl, combine the drained white beans, chopped red chili, parsley, olive oil, lemon zest, and juice. Season with salt and pepper. Cut the grilled bread into small croutons and mix into the salad just before serving.
Grill the flank steak for about 4–5 minutes per side for rare to medium-rare, depending on thickness. Use a thermometer to check doneness at the thickest point (145°F / 63°C for medium-rare). Let the steak rest off the heat for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
Spread the white bean salad over the base of a serving platter. Slice the flank steak against the grain and place over the salad. Drizzle with any resting juices. Top generously with the crispy garlic-chili topping, pickled radishes, and fresh parsley leaves.
