Recipe
Prepare pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, stir together in a large, shallow dish marinade ingredients: red wine vinegar, hot red pepper flakes, brown sugar, cayenne pepper and garlic. Add beef strips to the marinade.
Dissolve bouillon cube in 1 cup hot water. In a large skillet, warm the oil over high heat until it begins to smoke. Drain the beef thoroughly, reserving the marinade. Add beef to skillet and sauté until nicely browned, about 3 minutes. Remove beef with a slotted spoon. Reduce heat under skillet to medium and add broccoli and marinade. Sauté until broccoli is tender, about 6 minutes. Add tomato sauce, dissolved bouillon and flank steak to skillet.
When pasta is done, drain it well and transfer to serving dish. Spoon steak sauce over top and garnish with cherry tomatoes. Serve immediately.
