Rosemary Merlot Flank Steak

Ingredients
1  cup  finely chopped onion
3/4  cup  low-salt beef broth
3/4  cup  Merlot or other dry red wine
1  tablespoon  chopped fresh rosemary
1/2  teaspoon  salt
1/4  teaspoon  dried Italian seasoning
2  garlic cloves, minced
1  (1-pound) flank steak, trimmed
Cooking spray
1  tablespoon  tomato paste
2  teaspoons  Dijon mustard

Preheat grill or broiler.

Combine first 7 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add steak; seal bag. Marinate in refrigerator 20 minutes, turning once. Remove steak from bag, reserving marinade.

Place steak on grill rack or broiler pan coated with cooking spray; cook 6 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Let stand 5 minutes. Cut steak diagonally across grain into thin slices; keep warm.

While steak cooks, combine reserved marinade, tomato paste, and mustard in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring well with a whisk. Bring to a boil, and cook until reduced to 1 cup (about 7 minutes). Serve the sauce with steak.
