Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) Soy Sauce, low sodium preferred
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) Rice Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) Sesame Oil
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) Honey
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Ginger, grated
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) vegetable oil
  • 1.5 lbs (680g) Flank Steak
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable Oil (for cooking)
  • Sesame seeds
  • Thinly sliced green onions

Instructions:

  1. Whisk together all marinade ingredients in a mixing bowl until well combined.
  2. Place the flank steak in a Ziploc bag or container. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it's fully coated. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F/200°C) or a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the steak from the marinade (discard the used marinade). Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over the steak. Cook for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  5. Remove the steak from the grill/pan and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
  6. Slice the steak thinly against the grain. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions, if desired. Serve immediately.
