Orange Thai Beef Skewers

By robbandkris

Ingredients

• 1 orange
• 1/4 C soy sauce
• 1/4 C seasoned rice wine vinegar
• 1 T honey
• 1 T sesame oil
• 1 t ground ginger
• 1 t coriander
• 4 cloves garlic
• 2-4 t Sriracha chili sauce (or just hot sauce)
• 1 1/2 lb. flank steak
• skewers

Preparation

Step 1

Zest your orange and add all of the zest to the bowl. Then cut the orange in half and add all of the juice as well. You should have at least 1/4 C. orange juice and anything more than that is just fine. To the orange mixture, add soy sauce, vinegar, honey, sesame oil, ginger, coriander, and garlic. Then add Sriracha or hot sauce. Take the flank steak and slice it across the grain into about 1/4" slices. It helps to pop the steak into the freezer for 20 minutes or so before hand. Place steak in a zip-lock bag and pour the marinade in. Swish it all around and pop the bag in the fridge. It's best if it can sit for at least 4 hours. When you're ready to get cookin' preheat your grill. Then take your skewers (pre-soaked if you're using wood/bamboo ones) and thread on the strips of meat, just like you're stitching. You don't want them to be too smooshed on there. In order for them to cook evenly, stretch the meat out a bit. Cook 3-4 minutes on each side.

Serve with salad and Asian noodles or rice.
