Recipe: Broiled Teriyaki Flank Steak with Asian-Inspired Slaw

Ingredients:

For the Steak:

• 1.5 pounds flank steak

• 1/4 cup soy sauce

• 2 tablespoons honey

• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar

• 1 tablespoon sesame oil

• 2 teaspoons minced garlic

• 1 teaspoon grated ginger

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for searing)

• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Asian Slaw:

• 2 cups shredded napa cabbage

• 1 cup shredded carrots

• 1/2 cup sliced scallions

• 1/4 cup chopped cilantro

• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar

• 1 tablespoon soy sauce

• 1 tablespoon honey

• 1 tablespoon sesame oil

• 1 teaspoon grated ginger

• Salt and pepper to taste

• Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven on the broil setting. Adjust the oven rack to a position about 6 inches away from the broiler element.

2. In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper. Whisk the marinade until well combined.

3. Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for enhanced flavor.

4. While the steak is marinating, prepare the Asian slaw. In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, sliced scallions, chopped cilantro, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, grated ginger, salt, and pepper. Toss well to combine. Set aside to let the flavors meld.

5. Heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Sear the steak on both sides for about 2-3 minutes per side, until nicely browned.

6. Transfer the skillet with the seared steak to the preheated oven. Broil for approximately 4-6 minutes per side, depending on your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for the desired internal temperature (145°F for medium-rare, 160°F for medium).

7. Once the steak is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute for a tender and flavorful result.

8. Slice the broiled flank steak against the grain into thin strips.

9. Serve the broiled teriyaki flank steak alongside the Asian slaw. Garnish with sesame seeds, if desired, for an extra crunch and visual appeal.

Indulge in the succulent flavors of broiled teriyaki flank steak paired with a vibrant Asian-inspired slaw. This delicious dish showcases your oven's broil function, allowing you to create enjoyable meals even while waiting for repairs or dealing with parts delays.
