ORIENTAL FLANK STEAK

Category: Steaks - Beef

1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/8 cup white wine vinegar
1/8 cup water
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tbsp black pepper
1/8 tbsp ground red pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
1 (1-pound) flank steak
1 tbsp vegetable oil

Combine the first 7 ingredients together in a bowl, mix well. Reserve 1/3 cup of the soy sauce mixture and set aside.

Place the flank steak in a gallon-sized zip-top plastic bag, along with the remaining soy sauce mixture. Let out any air trapped inside the plastic bag and seal. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours, turning the bag occasionally.

Heat vegetable oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, place the flank steak into the skillet and sear on each side for 3-4 minutes, or until desired level of doneness. With the remaining soy sauce mixture, freely baste steak as needed. Once done, transfer steak to a plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to allow juices to be reabsorbed into the steak before slicing. Serves 4.
