By á-58

Ingredients

• 1 cup light rum
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 scallion, minced
• 1 flank steak (about 1 1/2 pounds), scored on both sides at 1 1/2-inch intervals

Preparation

Step 1

1. Whisk rum, soy sauce, sugar, ginger, and garlic in bowl until sugar dissolves. Transfer 1/4 cup rum mixture to small bowl and stir in scallion; set aside. Place remaining marinade and steak in gallon-size zipper-lock bag. Press air out of bag, seal, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.

2. Remove steak from bag, pat dry with paper towels, and discard marinade. Grill steak over hot fire until well browned and cooked to desired doneness, 4 to 7 minutes per side.

3. Transfer steak to cutting board, tent with foil, and let rest 5 minutes. Slice thinly on bias and against grain. Drizzle with reserved rum mixture. Serve.
