PACIFIC RIM FLANK STEAK

Steps:

• In a medium glass dish, stir together the marinade ingredients. Add the beef, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 8 to 24 hours, turning occasionally.
• Preheat the broiler. Lightly spray a broiler pan and rack with cooking spray.
• Remove the beef from the dish, discarding the marinade. Transfer the beef to the broiler rack.
• Broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat for 3 to 7 minutes on each side, or to the desired doneness (3 to 5 minutes on each side for medium rare, 4 to 7 minutes on each side for medium). Transfer the beef to a cutting board. Cut diagonally across the grain into very thin slices.
• Cook's Tip
• If you plan to make the steak salad, you will see that it calls for pineapple chunks canned in their own juice. That juice is too mild for the steak marinade, which is why we don't use it in this recipe. Regular canned pineapple juice will provide considerably more flavor.
• Cook's Tip on Chili Garlic Sauce or Paste
• Chili garlic sauce is a deliciously spicy blend of coarsely ground chiles and garlic. It is interchangeable with chili garlic paste, which includes the same ingredients plus vinegar. Look for these products in the international section of most major supermarkets. Try adding them to a variety of foods, such as chicken, fish, beef, and pasta.
