Ease of Preparation: Easy
Yield: 4-6 servings
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons (30 ml) pickling spice
1 teaspoon (5 ml) kosher salt
1 teaspoon (5 ml) black peppercorns
1 ½ pounds (680 g) flank steak
2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
2 tablespoons (30 ml) brown sugar
¼ cup (60 ml) white vinegar
Method:
In a spice mill or mortar and pestle, add pickling spice, salt, and black peppercorns. Pulse or grind to a medium-fine powder, then rub onto flank steak.
Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook on both sides for about 3 minutes each. In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar with white vinegar, then add to the pan in the last minute of cooking the steak. Flip steak to coat. Transfer steak to a cutting board to rest for 5-7 minutes.
Slice thick strips of steak against the grain and serve.
