Pepper-Crusted Flat Iron with Balsamic Glaze
Pepper-Crusted Flat Iron with Balsamic Glaze pairs a juicy, well-seared steak with a silky reduction that balances tangy balsamic sweetness against rich beefiness. Cracked peppercorns add gentle heat and texture, while butter and garlic round out the sauce. Serve for a weeknight dinner or a special at-home steak night with simple sides like roasted potatoes or greens.
