Best Grilled Asian Flank Steak With Sweet Slaw Recipes

MARINADE DONE RIGHT...ASIAN FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• Combine soy sauce, balsamic vinegar (this is what gives that tangy, savory flavor) honey, teriyaki sauce, ginger, lime, garlic, a few squirts of siracha, vegetable oil and scallions into a bowl and mix to combine all the flavors.
• Then throw all the ingredients in a zip lock bag along with the steak. Shake, shake, shake. Make sure it's all covered.
• Place in the fridge for at least an hour and up to 24 hours.
• If you live in the not so warm parts...like me... you can cheat a bit. Take a large oven proof frying pan and place it into a 500-degree oven for about 10 minutes. Or you can place it in there as the oven preheats.
• Remove your steak out of the bag and place it on a paper towel, dabbing the moisture off of the steak.
• Once the pan is heated, place the steak directly onto the pan. You will see it shrink up immediately from the high heat. Close the oven and allow to cook for 5 minutes then flip it and cook it for 2 minutes.
• For me, this is the ultimate way to sear a steak nicely without clouding my house up with smoke.
• Place the steak on a sheet pan and cover with foil. Let the meat rest for 10 minutes.
• Slice into it on a bias, against the grain, as we previously discussed.
• Sprinkle with scallions and grab some chop sticks! Dinner is served.

MARINATED FLANK STEAK WITH ASIAN SLAW

Steps:

• To make the steak, whisk together the vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, sugar and pepper flakes. Place the steak in a large plastic bag or in a shallow, nonreactive pan. Pour the marinade over the steak and refrigerate for at least 6 hours and up to 36 hours.
• To make the slaw, whisk together in a large bowl the peanut oil, shallot, chilies, lime juice, sesame oil and salt. Add the cabbage, carrots and scallions to the bowl. Refrigerate for at least an hour.
• When ready to cook, prepare a charcoal or gas grill or preheat the broiler. Grill or broil the steak, turning once, until it reaches the desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium rare. Allow to rest 10 minutes. Meanwhile, toss the slaw with the basil and place a mound of slaw on each of 4 plates. Slice the steak thinly on the bias, drape over the slaw and serve.
