Ingredients

  • 1 (1-pound) flank steak, trimmed
  • 3 tablespoons lower-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons sake (rice wine) or dry sherry
  • 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha (hot chile sauce, such as Huy Fong)
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Cooking spray

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat broiler.

2. Pierce steak gently on both sides. Combine steak and next 6 ingredients (through pepper) in a shallow dish; turn to coat. Marinate at room temperature 20 minutes, turning occasionally.

3. Remove steak from marinade, reserving marinade. Place steak on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Pour marinade into a small skillet; bring to a boil, stirring well. Cook over medium-high heat 3 minutes or until thick and syrupy.

4. Brush steak with half of glaze; broil 5 minutes. Turn steak over, and brush with remaining glaze; broil 5 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Place steak on a cutting board; let stand 5 minutes. Cut steak diagonally across grain into thin slices.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 ounces)
