This is a ridiculously easy overnight marinade that tenderizes and flavors the flank steak. It’s perfect for summer cookouts because it grills quickly. Scale to whatever proportions you need, but always keep the 2:1 juice-to-soy sauce ratio.
Ingredients
- Flank steak, 1.5-2 lbs
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 5 cloves of smashed garlic
- 1/2 inch of ginger, sliced
- Splash of canola oil
- 2 Tbsp brown sugar
Instructions
Mix all ingredients except brown sugar together in a zip top baggie. Refrigerate overnight.
Remove steak from marinade and grill over high heat, about 4 minutes per side. Rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
Pour marinade into a saucepan and add brown sugar. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer until thickened. Drizzle sauce over steak for added flavor and snazzy presentation.
Results: It’s meat, therefore it earns a big thumbs up from the Tiny Kitchen Assistant.
