Thai Steak Salad

Makes 4 – 6 servings

Steak Marinade

½ TB minced fresh ginger

¼ cup soy sauce

3 TB brown sugar

2 TB lime juice

½ TSP black pepper

½ TSP garlic powder

¼ cup olive oil

1 TB sesame oil

1 flank steak, trimmed

In a large Ziploc bag, combine all the ingredients with a whisk except the steak. Place the steak in the bag with the marinade. Tightly seal the bag and place in the refrigerator for 6 hours.

Once ready to cook, remove from marinade and pat dry. Lightly salt both sides with Kosher salt. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Grill in a grill pan or outside on a BBQ grill about 6 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 135˚ F for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest.


Dressing

¼ cup fresh lime juice

2 TB chili paste like sambal oelek. You may add up to ¼ cup if you like it more spicy

¼ cup vegetable oil

1 TB honey

1 garlic clove, minced

Whisk all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Season with salt to taste. You can make this one day ahead and store it in a glass jar in the refrigerator.
