Ingredients

  • 2 lbs flank steak (one large piece)
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup porcini mushroom powder (grind up 3/4 cup/0.7 oz.) dried mushrooms using a spice mill or a mortar and pestle
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp kosher salt
  • 1 tbsp coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Combine ground red pepper flakes, porcini powder, sugar, kosher salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
