Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs sirloin steak
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 3 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tsp lime zest
- 0.5 tsp red chili flakes
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.25 cup unsalted peanuts, crushed (optional)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and lime zest to create the marinade.
Place the sirloin steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the steak from the marinade and let it come to room temperature for about 15 minutes. Discard the used marinade.
Grill the steak for 5-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust based on your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches 130°F for medium-rare or 145°F for medium.
While the steak grills, prepare the tangy lime sauce by mixing lime juice, red chili flakes, and vegetable oil in a small bowl. Add green onions and cilantro for a fresh kick.
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips and arrange it on a serving platter.
Drizzle the tangy lime sauce over the steak and garnish with crushed peanuts, additional cilantro, and lime wedges if desired.
Serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
