How to Make Asian Marinade Sauce

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, honey, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes until the sugar and honey are dissolved.
  2. Add your choice of protein (steak, pork, or chicken) to a resealable bag or shallow dish.
  3. Pour the marinade over the protein, ensuring it's fully coated.
  4. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor.
  5. Remove the protein from the marinade and discard the marinade.
  6. Cook the marinated protein to your desired doneness. Grill, pan-fry, bake, or broil – the possibilities are endless!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
