Brown Sugar Steak

Brown Sugar Steak

¼ cup packed dark brown sugar
½ cup chicken or beef broth
¼ cup low sodium soy sauce
¼ cup Dijon mustard
½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
¼ tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 (2 pound) flank steak, trimmed (I've also used London broil steak)
Cooking spray
½ tsp cornstarch

Marinate steak in sauce overnight. Remove steak from marinade and reserve marinade. Grill steak or cook in heavy bottomed skillet coated with cooking spray. Pour marinade into a small saucepan and whisk in ½ tsp cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until thickened.

Serve with potatoes, rice or my favorite parmesan orzo (1 tbls. Butter, 1 cup orzo pasta, 2 ½ cups chicken broth or water, ¼ cup parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to taste – brown orzo in butter, add broth and simmer until broth is absorbed by pasta, add cheese salt & pepper. Other additions, sun-dried tomatoes, pinenuts, basil).
