Korean-Style Grilled Flank Steak

This easy-to-prepare recipe was a huge hit the first time we tried it!

¼ cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons rice vinegar (not seasoned)

1 tablespoon grated peeled ginger root

1 garlic clove, minced

2 teaspoons Siracha (Southeast Asian chili sauce)

2 teaspoons sugar

1 ½ teaspoons sesame oil

1 to 1 ¼ pound flank steak

2 scallions finely chopped

2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

Accompaniments white or brown rice, soft leaf lettuce leaves

 

Mix all marinade ingredients and place steak and marinade in a zip-lock bag for at least 4 hours in the refrigerator.  At least 1 hour before cooking, bring the steak up to ambient air temperature.

Remove the steak and boil the remaining marinade.  Prepare a medium-hot fire (400°F) and grill the steak about 7-8 minutes per side.  Remove the steak and puncture lightly with a knife.  Pour the remaining boiled marinade (reserve about ¼ cup for the table) over the top of the steak and let it stand for 10 minutes before slicing.  Slice against the grain into thin slices and serve.

Take a lettuce leaf and fill it with rice, then top with steak slices and sauce.
