Serving Size: 6

Cooking Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

• 3 Pounds (lb) flat iron steak
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) mixed peppercorns, ground
• 1.5 Teaspoons (tsp) salt
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) unsalted butter
• 1 Clove garlic, minced
• 1 Cup balsamic vinegar
• 0.25 Cup fresh parsley, minced

Steps

1. Prepare the Steak: Brush the flat iron steak with olive oil. Press the steak into the ground peppercorns, ensuring an even coating. Season with salt and set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
2. Sear the Steak: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook for about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Transfer the steak to a plate and cover it with foil to keep warm.
3. Make the Balsamic Reduction: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook over medium heat until it begins to brown around the edges, about 1 minute. Pour in the balsamic vinegar and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook until the vinegar has reduced by half, forming a thick glaze.
4. Serve: Thinly slice the steak against the grain to ensure tenderness. Arrange the slices on a serving platter. Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the steak and sprinkle with minced fresh parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
