INGREDIENTS
1 lb   500 g   Flank, Inside Round, Outside Round or Sirloin Tip Marinating Steak
3/4 cup   200 mL   Renée's Gourmetâ„¢ Mandarin Orange Sauce
1/2 cup   125 mL   dark beer or stout

PREPARATION TIME: 5 - 10 minutes
COOKING TIME: 10 - 12 minutes

DIRECTIONS
Pierce steak several times with fork; place in resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Combine remaining ingredients, except pepper; mix well and pour over meat. Seal bag tightly or cover dish. Let meat marinate in refrigerator, turning occasionally, for at least 12 hours. Remove meat from marinade, season with pepper and broil, grill or pan-fry over medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium doneness; remove from heat and allow to rest 5 minutes. Transfer marinade to small saucepan and boil for 5-10 minutes, until slightly thickened. To serve, slice steak in thin strips across the grain and top with sauce, if desired. Alternately, place steak slices over rice or orzo pasta and use the hot marinade sauce as dressing.
