Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Prepare the Steak: Pat the flank steak dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Sear the Steak: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet (cast iron is ideal) over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the flank steak and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until deeply browned and a crust has formed. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F. (8-12 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Rest the Steak: Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for at least 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender steak. (10 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Sauté the Mushrooms: While the steak rests, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and browned, about 5-7 minutes. (5-7 minutes)

05

Step
1 mins

Add Aromatics: Add the diced shallot and minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another 30 seconds, until fragrant. (30 seconds)

06

Step
3 mins

Create the Sauce: If using, deglaze the pan with the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine reduce slightly, about 1 minute. Stir in the concentrated beef broth (or beef stock), water, and remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped rosemary. (4-5 minutes)

07

Step
0 mins

Slice and Serve: Thinly slice the flank steak against the grain. Serve immediately, drizzled generously with the mushroom sauce.

For best results, use high-quality flank steak and fresh mushrooms.
Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the steak, as this will lower the heat and prevent a good sear.
Adjust the cooking time of the steak based on your desired level of doneness. Use an instant-read thermometer for accurate results.
The mushroom sauce can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving.
Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad for a complete meal.
