Hello! Let's get cooking!
It's Wednesday, mid-week, and with all the things to do and the play to be had, cooking time may not be on our side!
That's when I turn to fast meals like this super-easy-to-make flank steak recipe that I have literally been cooking FOR YEARS!
It's is one of the very first things I learned to cook from one of my first cookbooks, Easy Basics for Good Cooking from Sunset magazine. Yep, way back in my 20s!
The thing about this recipe is the flank steak cooks on the stove in under 10 minutes. That's when you start on making the tangy Dijon mustard and briny caper sauce.
Over the years, I've tweaked the recipe to make it my own, adding a nob of this or a dash of that. The recipe is pretty perfect as is, but you can have fun with it by adding a few extra flourishes.
Here I've added tarragon and chopped shallots, adding even more flavor to the lush mustard sauce drizzled over the oh-so-tender sliced steak.
We love it so much; it's definitely a weeknight dinner that I'll never stop cooking.
Enjoy!
Heidi
