Beer Soaked Beef

I found this gem on the WW website.  It is so good.  Although, I will admit, I still haven't gotten the whole reducing the marinade into a sauce thing down yet.  First time, it fizzed all over the place.  Second time, I wasn't paying attention and it reduced too much.  One of these days though, I'll get it!

Beer Soaked Beef
Serves: 6
Points: 6

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(s) raw lean flank steak, 1-inch thick, washed and patted dry


Instructions

1) 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.


2) 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.

3) 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.

4) Thinly slice steak against the grain and serve with sauce. Yields about 4 ounces of steak per serving.
