Ingredients

• 1 pound flank steak
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 2 teaspoons water (for cornstarch slurry)
• 12 leaves butter lettuce leaves
• 2 stalks green onions, sliced
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to make the teriyaki marinade.

Step 2

Slice the flank steak into thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick, against the grain. Place the steak slices into a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over the steak. Reserve the other half of the marinade for later. Let the steak marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the reserved marinade. In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry, then stir the slurry into the marinade. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until it thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated steak slices and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the steak is browned and cooked through.

Step 5

Wash and dry butter lettuce leaves, separating them gently to create individual wraps.

Step 6

To assemble, spoon a portion of the cooked teriyaki steak onto each lettuce leaf. Drizzle with the thickened teriyaki sauce, then top with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy!
