Yield 4 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
1 bunch scallions (white and pale green parts separated from greens), minced (1/2 cup)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
3 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
1 lb flank steak, cut across the grain into very thin slices (no more than 1/8 inch thick)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Accompaniments: butter lettuce or other soft-leaf lettuce; thinly sliced garlic; packaged kimchi*; steamed white rice

Steps:

  • Stir together soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, white and pale green scallions, garlic, ginger, and 2 tablespoons sesame seeds in a bowl until sugar is dissolved. Add steak and toss to coat, then marinate 15 minutes.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat until just smoking, then add steak in 1 layer and sauté, turning over occasionally, until browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes total.

I would not recommend this recipe. The marinade was too sweet and the beef was undercooked. I was very disappointed.

This recipe was a disaster! The marinade was too salty and the beef was overcooked. I ended up throwing it away.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover steak. The marinade is simple to make and the beef cooks quickly. The flavor was good, but not as amazing as I was hoping for.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The beef is always tender and juicy, and the marinade is so flavorful. I love that I can make it ahead of time and then just cook it when I'm ready to eat.
