Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Flank steak
• 0.5 cups Soy sauce
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 0.25 cups Water
• 2 stalks Green onions, sliced (for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the teriyaki marinade.

Step 2

Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the teriyaki marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate.

Step 3

When ready to cook, remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. Reserve the marinade for later use.

Step 4

In a small saucepan, combine the reserved marinade with the cornstarch and water. Heat over medium-low heat, whisking continuously, until the sauce thickens (approximately 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Preheat a grill or large skillet to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or skillet to prevent sticking.

Step 6

Cook the flank steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if desired. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature is 130°F for medium-rare or 140°F for medium. Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Step 7

Slice the steak thinly against the grain to maximize tenderness. Drizzle the thickened teriyaki sauce over the slices.

Step 8

Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately and enjoy!
