ingredients
Asian Marinade
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup mirin
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- ½ cup sake
- ½ cup mirin
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp water
- Fresh green onions, for garnish
directions
- Place flank steak in a large dish and prepare marinade. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, mirin, vegetable oil, ginger and garlic. Pour marinade over flank steak, cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
- To prepare the teriyaki sauce, in a medium saucepan, combine sake, mirin, soy sauce, sugar and ginger. In a separate bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to dissolve. Add to saucepan and cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, whisking often. Remove ¼ cup teriyaki sauce for basting the flank steak. Set aside remaining sauce.
- To cook the flank steak, remove from refrigerator half hour before cooking to bring the meat to room temperature. Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil grill grates. Remove from marinade and pat meat dry with paper towel. Place on grill and cook 6 minutes, flip and cook 5 minutes more until cooked through. In the last minute of cooking, brush with ¼ cup teriyaki sauce on both sides. Transfer flank steak to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Thinly slice steak against the grain. Serve over steamed rice, drizzle with teriyaki sauce and garnish with chopped green onions.
