2      Pounds Flank Steak




Squeeze fresh orange juice.

Squeeze fresh lemon or lime juice.



Peel garlic and ginger.

Trim green onion and wash cilantro.

Rough chop ingredients; place into a blender.



Measure and place all remaining marinade ingredients into the blender.


Puree all marinade ingredients together.

Sriracha is a spicy hot sauce from Vietnam.



Trim excess fat off of the flank steak.

Use a regular fork to stab little holes all over the meat.

This will help tenderize the meat and also help the meat to absorb the marinade.



Pour 2/3 of the marinade over the steak.

You can do this in a 2 quart baking dish.

Rub marinade all over both sides of the steak.

You can save some of the marinade to use as a salad dressing for this Thai Salad.


Cover the dish and place into the fridge.
 
You can also place steak and marinade into a freezer bag.

Flank steak needs at least 24 to 36 hours in the marinade.
 


Turn BBQ grill or oven broiler onto high.

Let heat for 10 to 15 minutes.

Grill steak for about four minutes on each side.

Flank steak is best when cooked medium-rare.

Let cooked steak rest for around five minutes.

Slice thin, against the grain and on the bias.
