Flank Steak With Garlic Butter

Recipe Instructions To prepare the steak, heat the broiler or a frying pan. Wash and pat flank steak dry and sprinkle it with salt and freshly ground pepper. Pan-fry or broil to taste. (Rare and medium-rare work best with this cut of meat.) Put butter (depending on the steak's size) to melt in a skillet along with garlic. Cut a wide loaf of French or Italian crusty bread into 1-inch-thick diagonal slices and put under the broiler to toast while you're slicing the steak. To serve, place 1 or 2 pieces of bread on each plate, top with the flank steak slices and pour the garlic butter on top of the steak and bread. This recipe yields ?? servings.
