    • 2 teaspoons light brown sugar
    • 2 teaspoons plus 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

  • Herbs

    • 2 teaspoons plus 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
    • 2 teaspoons minced garlic

  • Spices

    • 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
    • 🧂 1/8 teaspoon salt

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange halved strawberries on it.

2

Roast strawberries in the preheated oven until soft and caramelized, about 20 minutes.

3

Make the sauce by transferring roasted strawberries and juices to a saucepan. Stir in water, ketchup, brown sugar, basil, vinegar, garlic, white pepper, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.

4

Let the sauce cool slightly and blend it until smooth.

5

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (375–400 degrees F). Oil the grates and season the beef flank steak with salt and black pepper.

6

Grill the steak for 10 minutes on one side, turn it over, and brush lightly with sauce. Continue cooking, brushing with sauce every 3 minutes, for another 10 minutes.

7

Transfer the steak to a cutting board, cover loosely with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes.

8

Prepare the salsa by mixing chopped strawberries, cucumber, onion, basil, vinegar, garlic, and salt in a bowl. Chill for up to 4 hours.

9

Thinly slice the steak and serve with strawberry salsa, garnishing with additional basil.
