GRILLED MARINATED FLANK STEAKS

Steps:

• 1. Put the flank steak in a large self-sealing plastic bag. Whisk the sherry, soy sauce, brown sugar, Creole Seasoning, garlic, tomato paste, and pepper in a medium bowl. Pour into the bag and seal. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, and up to 24 hours.
• 2. Preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
• 3. Remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry. Grill the steak for about 6 minutes on each side for rare. While it cooks, pour the marinade into a small heavy saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer until reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes.
• 4. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing.
• 5. Cut the steak across the grain into thin diagonal slices, and serve with the sauce on the side.
