Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

3 lbs flank steak, cut against the grain into 1/4-inch slices
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce (trust me, this keeps it from tasting like beef jerky)
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
3 cloves garlic, grated or minced
1 1/2 Tablespoons fresh grated ginger
1 teaspoon Sriracha chili sauce (it's red, has a green cap, and there's a rooster on the bottle)
1 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
skewers

Steps:

Combine rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, chili sauce, and sesame oil in a gallon-sized zip-loc bag. Add sliced steak. Close bag and swish it all around until all the meat is covered. Marinate in the fridge for 1-4 hours (even 1/2 hour is better than nothing), turning the bag occasionally. Preheat Grill. Thread steak onto skewers if using wooden skewers, soak them for 1/2 hour first). Cook over medium-high heat for about 4 minutes per side, or until done, being careful not to overcook meat. Serve immediately.
