Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a medium pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes; drain.
- Meanwhile, combine the parsley, scallion, jalapeno, garlic, lemon zest and juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a mini food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season the steak with salt and pepper. Add to the skillet and cook until browned, 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the potatoes to the same skillet; gently smash the potatoes with the back of a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Top with the parsley sauce and serve with the potatoes.

Steps:
- Mix garlic, steak seasoning, smoked paprika, chipotle or cumin, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce and vinegar. Whisk in extra-virgin olive oil. Place meat in shallow dish and coat it evenly in marinade. Let stand 15 minutes.
- Cut larger potatoes in half, leave very small potatoes whole. Place potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook potatoes 12 to 15 minutes until tender.
- Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to high heat.
- Cut leek in half lengthwise. Chop into 1/2-inch pieces. Place leeks in big bowl of water and release all the dirt from them with a good swish, separating all the layers. Drain leeks in a colander.
- Grill flank steak 6 to 7 minutes on each side.
- Put a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil into a hot nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Cook bacon 3 to 5 minutes until it begins to crisp and has rendered most of its fat. Add leeks to the skillet and cook 3 to 5 minutes more until the leeks are tender.
- Drain the potatoes and return them to the hot pot. Smash the potatoes with the chicken stock. Add the BLT: bacon, leeks and tomatoes to the potatoes and continue to smash. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper to your taste.

Steps:
- In a nonreactive dish or large resealable plastic bag, combine all ingredients except steak and mix thoroughly. Add steak and turn to thoroughly coat. Cover dish or close bag and allow to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes. (If you are making ahead, cover, and place in refrigerator. Can be marinated up to 24 hours in refrigerator.)
- Once steak has marinated, remove from refrigerator and bring to room temperature for at least 15 minutes. Heat a lightly oiled grill pan to medium-high heat. When pan is heated, remove steak from marinade, shake off excess, add to pan and cook for about 6 to 8 minutes per side for medium rare.
- Transfer to a cutting board, season with additional salt and freshly ground black pepper and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Slice thinly across the grain and serve.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh ginger and wasabi. If you can't find fresh wasabi, you can use prepared wasabi paste, but be sure to use a good quality brand.
- To make sure the flank steak is cooked evenly, cook it over high heat for a short period of time. Overcooking will make the steak tough.
- The wasabi-smashed potatoes are a great way to add a spicy kick to your meal. Be sure to use a good quality wasabi paste, as this will make a big difference in the flavor of the potatoes.
- If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin to pound the flank steak.
- To make the sauce, you can use either rice vinegar or white vinegar. Rice vinegar will give the sauce a slightly sweeter flavor, while white vinegar will give it a more tart flavor.
Conclusion:
This ginger flank steak with wasabi-smashed potatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The flank steak is tender and flavorful, and the potatoes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The wasabi sauce adds a nice spicy kick to the dish. This meal is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
