1 tsp. Sesame oil
3 tsp. Low sodium soy sauce (or gluten-free tamari sauce)
1/2 tsp. Five Spice Powder
8 ounce Beef flank steak

1 tsp.. Unsalted butter

Instructions

Place the garlic, ginger, sesame oil, soy sauce and five spice powder in a blender or mini chopper and puree until smooth.

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place a large skillet in the oven.

When the oven is hot, sprinkle the steak with pepper and place the steak in the hot pan.

Add the sauce to the pan, turning the steak to coat it on both sides.

Cook for about 8 minutes on one side and turn over. Cook for another 7 to 9 minutes for medium rare.

Remove the pan from the oven and place the steak on a cutting board to rest.

Add the beer to the pan and whisk to deglaze the pan.

Add the butter and whisk until smooth.

Serve the steak topped with the sauce.
