Teriyaki Flank Steak Recipe

Prep: 10 min. + marinating Grill: 15 min.

Yield: 6 Servings

10 15 25

Ingredients

2/3 cup reduced-sodium teriyaki sauce
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1-3/4 teaspoons ground ginger
1-1/2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons sesame oil
1 beef flank steak (1-1/2 pounds)
1 green onion, chopped

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Transfer 3/4 cup marinade to a large resealable plastic bag; add garlic and sesame oil. Score surface of flank steak, making diamond shapes 1/4 in. deep; place in bag. Seal and turn to coat; refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting.
Drain and discard marinade from steak. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 7-10 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°), basting occasionally with 3 tablespoons of the reserved marinade.
Let stand for 5 minutes; slice across the grain. Heat remaining marinade; serve over beef. Sprinkle with green onion. Yield: 6 servings.
