Ingredients
- Flank steak
- 1.5 pounds
- Soy sauce
- 1/2 cup
- Honey
- 1/4 cup
- Garlic
- 4 cloves, minced
- Ginger
- 1 tablespoon, grated
- Green onions
- 3, chopped
- Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon, freshly ground
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, sesame oil, and black pepper until well combined.
- Place the flank steak in a large zip-top bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best flavor.
- Preheat your grill to high heat, ensuring the grates are clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
- Remove the flank steak from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the leftover marinade.
- Grill the steak for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 130°F for medium-rare.
- Once grilled to perfection, let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute for a more flavorful bite. Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips and serve immediately.
Tips
- For an extra kick, add a teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
- If you prefer a more intense flavor, consider marinating the steak overnight.
- This flank steak pairs beautifully with grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
