See This Recipe In...
A rich balsamic-spiked mushroom sauce enhances the natural flavor of tender flank steak. Allow the meat to rest for a few minutes after broiling to keep it juicy.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 ounces steak and about 1/3 cup sauce)
Ingredients
- Steak:
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (1-pound) flank steak, trimmed
- Cooking spray
-
Sauce: - 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 cups thinly sliced shiitake mushroom caps (about 1/2 pound mushrooms)
- 1 cup less-sodium beef broth
- 1/3 cup dry white wine
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup minced green onions
Preparation
Preheat broiler.
To prepare steak, sprinkle salt and pepper evenly over both sides of steak. Place steak on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray; broil 5 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Remove the steak from oven; loosely cover with foil.
To prepare sauce, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add 1/2 cup onion and garlic; sauté 2 minutes. Add mushrooms; sauté for 4 minutes. Add broth, wine, and vinegar. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium, and cook until reduced to 1 1/4 cups (about 6 minutes). Add green onions, and cook for 1 minute.
Slice steak diagonally across the grain into 1/4-inch slices. Serve steak with mushroom sauce.
