Least awkward bargain (5)
I believe the answer is:
steal
'bargain' is the definition.
(I know that bargain can be written as steal)
'least awkward' is the wordplay.
'awkward' is an anagram indicator.
'least' with letters rearranged gives 'STEAL'.
(Other definitions for steal that I've seen before include "crib" , "Whip" , "Walk off with" , "a snip!" , "pirate" .)
