Asian Flank Steak

"A flavorful Asian-inspired flank steak is marinated in a Chinese sauce made of red chili, and garlic," Lee Kum Kee" The key to keeping flank steak tender is to sear it quickly over high heat, so you must start with a hot grill. Serve over rice or over a bed of greens or in a wrap. FYI: Make one now and one later. I bought 2 steaks made one and froze the other with the marinade. Before cooking defrosted in the refrigerator and brought to room temperature before grilling. It was PERFECT!"

  1. I started marinating my steak in the morning before work, and by the time I could get home from work and light the grill, my steak had marinated for about 10 hours.I made it exactly as posted, adding the cilantro. My steak tasted strongly of ketchup, so I'd reduce the amount of ketchup or leave it out entirely. But it may have been because I marinated a bit longer than the recipe stated. The cooking time was perfect for medium-rare, and the meat turned out tender. Thanks for sharing your recipe! Made for Bargain Basement tag game.
