How to Make Marinade

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes.
  2. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking constantly to create an emulsion.
  3. Add the flank steak to a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it's fully coated.
  4. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours, or up to 48 hours for maximum flavor.
  5. Remove the steak from the marinade and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. (Grilling, pan-searing, or broiling are all excellent options!)
