Flank steak is such a wonderful cut of meat. Its full of flavor, tender, and won't break the budget. Today we are featuring an easy teriyaki version of this dynamic cut of protein. This recipe features mirin, which is similar to rice wine used for making sake, but with a much sweeter flavor. It really enhances the taste of the steak and gives it an unexpected flavor your guests won't be used to that will really wow them.
Ingredients:
2 lbs flank steak
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup mirin
1/2 tsp fish sauce
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
3 cloves garlic, mined
5 stalks green onion, chopped
1 tsp sesame seeds
Combine your soy sauce, mirin, sugar, ginger, onions, fish sauce, and garlic in a sauce pan and simmer on low until it begins to thicken and look syrupy. Split the mixture in half and marinate your meat with 1/2 of it in a zip lock bag for at least 8 hours. Grill until charred slightly on both sides but still medium on the inside, about 3 minutes per side.
This dish will delight your guests and leave them with a new flavor profile they most likely haven't had. We hope you enjoy it!
