Ingredients

• 1 pound Flank steak
• 0.5 cup Fresh orange juice
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, freshly grated
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 1 teaspoon Orange zest
• 2 tablespoons Sliced green onions (for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the orange juice, soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, olive oil, black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, and pour half of the marinade over the steak, reserving the other half for later. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.

Step 3

Remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. Allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface with a small amount of olive oil.

Step 5

Sear the flank steak for 4-6 minutes per side, depending on your desired level of doneness (135°F internal temperature for medium-rare). Remove the steak from the pan, tent with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 6

While the steak rests, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry, then stir it into the marinade.

Step 7

Cook the marinade over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens into a glaze. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Once thickened, remove it from the heat and stir in the orange zest.

Step 8

Slice the flank steak thinly against the grain and arrange the slices on a serving platter.

Step 9

Drizzle the orange glaze over the sliced steak and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
