Ingredients

• 1 ½ pounds beef flank steak
• ½ cup soy sauce
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 4 scallions, chopped (for garnish)
• Cooked rice (for serving)
• Steamed vegetables (for serving)

How to Make Sliced Beef with Savory Sauce

1. Start by preparing the marinade. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, minced ginger, rice vinegar, and black pepper until the sugar is dissolved.
2. Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag, ensuring the steak is well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
3. Once marinated, remove the steak from the bag and let it come to room temperature for about 15 minutes. Discard the marinade.
4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the flank steak and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F.
5. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
6. Slice the beef thinly against the grain. Arrange on a platter and drizzle with any remaining juices from the skillet.
7. Garnish with chopped scallions and serve with cooked rice and steamed vegetables.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure to slice the beef against the grain for maximum tenderness.
• Let the steak rest after cooking to keep it juicy.
• Adjust the sweetness of the sauce by adding more or less brown sugar according to your taste.

Easy Variations

• For a spicy kick, add a teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
• Substitute flank steak with sirloin or ribeye for a different flavor profile.
• Add vegetables like bell peppers or snap peas to the skillet during the last few minutes of cooking for a one-pan meal.

What to Serve With It

• Steamed jasmine or brown rice
• Garlic sautéed greens, like bok choy or spinach
• A simple cucumber salad with sesame dressing
• Stir-fried noodles with vegetables
