How To Make flank steak with garlic wine sauce

  • Step 1
    Sprinkle flank steak with salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper.
  • Step 2
    Heat a wide heavy skillet.
  • Step 3
    Do not add fat.
  • Step 4
    When hot, cook seasoned steak until seared and well browned on each side (about 1 minute per side).
  • Step 5
    Reduce heat and add 2 tablespoons butter.
  • Step 6
    Cook 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
  • Step 7
    For best results, the meat should be quite rare.

    Remove the meat from the pan and keep warm.
  • Step 9
    Pour off the fat in the skillet and add the scallions and red wine.
  • Step 10
    Bring to a boil and whisk in the garlic puree.
  • Step 11
    Boil until the wine is reduced by half, thickened and syrupy.
  • Step 12
    As it boils, scrape up the browned bits in the skillet with a wooden spoon.
  • Step 13
    Stir in the meat juices that have accumulated unter the flank steak.
  • Step 14
    Boil for 1 or 2 seconds more.
  • Step 15
    Remove from the heat.
  • Step 16
    Gently swirl in the 2 tablespoons softened butter so that it incorporates into the wine.
  • Step 17
    Quickly slice the meat, against the grain, into thin strips.
  • Step 18
    Arrange the slices on a hot platter, pour sauce down the center of them and serve at once.
