Ingredients

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 (1 1/2-pound) beef flank steak
1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 (13.75 ounce) can chicken broth
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 whole cloves

Instructions

Step 1

Mix the flour and garlic powder together in a shallow dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Dip the steak in the flour mixture evenly coating both sides. Set aside. Discard remaining flour mixture.

Step 2

Heat the cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the steak in the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes for each side. Stir in the chicken broth, lemon juice, garlic, and cloves. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low. Cover, and simmer until steak is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.

Step 3

To serve, remove steak from the skillet, and slice across the grain in thin strips. Place on serving plates, and ladle sauce over meat.
