Ingredients

• 2 pounds flank steak
• 0.5 cup soy sauce
• 0.5 cup pineapple juice
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 4 fresh pineapple slices
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped green onions, and sesame oil to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, making sure it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Step 3

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 4

Remove the steak from the marinade and allow the excess marinade to drip off. Season the steak with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 5

Place the steak on the preheated grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached. Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Step 6

While the steak is resting, grill the fresh pineapple slices for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are caramelized and have grill marks.

Step 7

Slice the flank steak thinly against the grain.

Step 8

Serve the grilled steak with the pineapple slices, garnished with sesame seeds for a tropical and flavorful meal.
