🥘 Ingredients

13 items

• 1 pound Flank steak
• 0.5 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes

• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes to create the marinade.

2. Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over the steak. Reserve the other half for later use. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the steak. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

3. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to form a slurry. Set aside.

4. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and heat until shimmering.

5. Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off, and place it in the hot skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your preferred doneness.

6. Transfer the steak to a cutting board, tent loosely with foil, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.

7. While the steak is resting, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring it to a simmer, and then stir in the cornstarch slurry. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens into a glaze.

8. Slice the steak thinly against the grain. Drizzle the soy glaze over the sliced steak.

9. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
