How to Make Asian Flank Steak

  1. Whisk together all marinade ingredients in a medium bowl: 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1 clove minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional).
  2. Place flank steak (about 1.5 lbs) in a large resealable zip-top bag. Pour marinade over the steak, ensuring it's fully coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator, turning occasionally.
  3. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  4. Remove steak from marinade and reserve marinade. Grill steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches your preferred internal temperature.
  5. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes, loosely tented with foil. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender steak.
  6. While the steak rests, pour reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  7. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Serve immediately, drizzled with the reduced marinade sauce.
