Pacific Rim Glazed Flank Steak Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil and fish sauce.
• Stir in onion, basil, mint, lemongrass, serrano pepper and crushed peanuts. Season with chili sauce, coriander and garlic salt; stir to combine.
• Place flank steak and marinade in an airtight container for 6 hours or overnight.
• Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Drain liquid from marinated steak, reserving the steak and non-liquid ingredients.
• Spray a large sheet of aluminum foil with cooking spray; place flank steak and non-liquid marinade ingredients on top and fold to seal.
• Grill for 20 minutes or until beef reaches desired doneness.

Steps:

• Combine marinade ingredients in glass measuring cup, whisking until just blended. Cover and refrigerate 2/3 cup for dressing. Place beef steak and remaining marinade in plastic bag; turn steak to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 6 hours or as long as overnight, turning occasionally.
• Prepare Noodle Salad.
• Meanwhile, remove steak from marinade; discard marinade. Place steak on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 11 to 16 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 16 to 21 minutes) for medium rare (145 degrees F) to medium (160 degrees F) doneness, turning occasionally.
• Carve steak diagonally across the grain into slices; sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions, if desired. Serve steak with noodle salad.
• Noodle Salad: Cook whole grain or wheat spaghetti according to package directions, adding broccoli florets, red bell pepper and carrot during last 3 minutes of cooking; drain. Place pasta mixture in large serving bowl. Stir in fresh basil. Heat reserved 2/3 cup dressing in microwave on HIGH 30 to 60 seconds or until hot, stirring once. Add to pasta mixture, tossing to combine. Set aside.

Steps:

• In a medium glass dish, stir together the marinade ingredients. Add the beef, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 8 to 24 hours, turning occasionally.
• Preheat the broiler. Lightly spray a broiler pan and rack with cooking spray.
• Remove the beef from the dish, discarding the marinade. Transfer the beef to the broiler rack.
• Broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat for 3 to 7 minutes on each side, or to the desired doneness (3 to 5 minutes on each side for medium rare, 4 to 7 minutes on each side for medium). Transfer the beef to a cutting board. Cut diagonally across the grain into very thin slices.
• Cook's Tip
• If you plan to make the steak salad, you will see that it calls for pineapple chunks canned in their own juice. That juice is too mild for the steak marinade, which is why we don't use it in this recipe. Regular canned pineapple juice will provide considerably more flavor.
• Cook's Tip on Chili Garlic Sauce or Paste
• Chili garlic sauce is a deliciously spicy blend of coarsely ground chiles and garlic. It is interchangeable with chili garlic paste, which includes the same ingredients plus vinegar. Look for these products in the international section of most major supermarkets. Try adding them to a variety of foods, such as chicken, fish, beef, and pasta.
