Title: Balsamic-Glazed Sirloin Steak
Yield: 1

Ingredients

    3/4 lb boneless sirloin steak;
           -(1/2-inch-thick)
      2 ts sesame seeds
      2 ts vegetable oil
      2    garlic cloves; minced
    1/8 ts dried hot red pepper flakes
      3 tb medium-dry sherry
      1 tb soy sauce
      2 ts balsamic vinegar
      1 ts honey
      1 tb cold unsalted butter

Instructions

Pat steak dry and season lightly with salt and pepper. Spread 1 teaspoon
sesame seeds evenly on one side of steak.

In a large heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until it
begins to smoke and add steak, sesame-seed-side down. Spread remaining
teaspoon sesame seeds on top of steak. Cook steak 1 1/2 minutes on each
side for medium-rare meat and transfer with a slotted spatula to a small
platter. Keep steak warm.

Pour off almost all fat from skillet and add garlic and red pepper flakes.
Cook garlic mixture over moderate heat, stirring, 10 seconds and add
Sherry. Boil mixture until almost all liquid is evaporated and remove
skillet from heat. Add soy sauce, vinegar, and honey and bring to a
simmer, stirring. Add butter and stir over low heat until incorporated.
Spoon glaze over steak.

Serves 2.
