How to Make Asian Grilled Flank Steak

1. Score the flank steak on both sides, creating ½-inch deep cuts, but do not cut all the way through.
2. Place the steak in a shallow glass dish or large resealable plastic bag.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients: ¼ cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional).
4. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it's fully coated.
5. Cover the dish or seal the bag tightly.
6. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
7. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the marinade.
8. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Clean the grill grates to prevent sticking.
9. Grill the steak for 15-20 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness (internal temperature of 130-135°F for medium-rare), turning every 8 minutes. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
10. Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender steak.
11. To serve, slice the steak thinly against the grain. Serve immediately with your choice of white rice, grilled potatoes or vegetables, and a mixed green salad.
