Pan-Grilled Flank Steak with Soy-Mustard Sauce.

Pan-Grilled Flank Steak with Soy-Mustard Sauce...yepp, its as delicious as it sounds. The recipe is from Cooking Light and it didn't require as much effort as you would think!

What you need...

  • 1 pound flank steak, trimmed

  • 3/8 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • Cooking spray

  • 1 teaspoon canola oil

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh garlic

  • 2 tablespoons lower-sodium soy sauce

  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

  • 3/4 teaspoon sugar

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, divided


Heat a grill or grill pan over high heat. Sprinkle steak evenly with salt and pepper. Lightly coat the steak with cooking spray. (Ewwww, raw meat is gross.)



Add steak to pan (or grill); grill for 5 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Let stand 3 minutes.


Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add garlic; cook for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add soy sauce, mustard, and sugar; cook 1 minute or until bubbly. Remove pan from heat. Stir in cream and 1 tablespoon cilantro.



Cut steak diagonally across grain into thin slices. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro. Serve sauce with steak. One serving  (about 3 ounces steak and about 1 tablespoon sauce) is 220 calories.


I served the steak with Garlicky Asparagus for a total of 277 calories. It was by far one of my favorite meals I've ever cooked. I mean, just look at it!!!


Writing this post made me want to make it again...and I'm sure my boyfriend wouldn't hate that. Seriously, make this, you won't be sorry!!! K, byeeee.
