Beer-Soaked Beef

WW POINTS® Value: 6 (per 4 oz serving of cooked meat)
Servings: 6
Preparation Time: 7 min
Cooking Time: 14 min
Level of Difficulty: Easy

This meat is wonderfully tender and so well-flavored. Marinate it in the morning before you go to work and just pop it in the oven when you get home.



Ingredients

* 12 oz beer
* 2 Tbsp olive oil
* 1 large garlic clove(s), peeled and smashed
* 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
* 1 Tbsp dark brown sugar
* 1 tsp table salt
* 1/8 tsp whole cloves
* 1 1/2 pound raw lean flank steak, 1-inch thick, washed and patted dry

Instructions

* In a 9- X 13-inch glass baking dish, combine beer, oil, garlic, lemon juice, sugar, salt and cloves; add steak. Cover dish and marinate in refrigerator, turning once or twice, at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours.

* Place a grill pan in broiler; preheat broiler to high. Remove meat from marinade and broil about 3 1/2 minutes per side for medium rare, or longer until desired doneness.* Remove meat from broiler and place meat on a plate; loosely cover with aluminum foil and let stand for about 10 minutes.

* Meanwhile, place grill pan on stovetop over high heat; carefully pour marinade onto grill pan. Bring to a boil (beer will foam) and cook until all alcohol burns off, about 5 to 7 minutes.

* Slice steak thinly and serve with sauce. Yields about 4 ounces of steak per serving.

Notes

* *You can also cook this recipe on the grill and reduce the sauce in a saucepan on the stove.
