Quick Grilled Flanken With Chili, Sesame and Ginger
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 inch long piece fresh ginger root, peeled and chopped
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, more to taste
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
- 3 tablespoons toasted Asian sesame oil, more to taste
- 1 tablespoon Asian chili sauce like sriracha
- 3 pounds flanken
- Arugula or sunflower sprouts, for serving
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
- Put garlic, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and salt into a blender and blend until smooth.
- Add sesame oil and chili sauce and blend well.
- Coat flanken with just enough of the mixture to cover it; there should be some left over.
- Let it marinate, covered, for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 24 hours in refrigerator (the longer the better).
- Preheat grill or broiler.
- Grill or broil meat until done to taste, about 4 minutes a side for rare.
- Toss greens with a drizzle of sesame oil and rice vinegar and a pinch of salt.
- Slice meat (you can slice it off bones or leave bones in) and serve over greens.
- Sprinkle everything with sesame seeds and more salt if desired, and drizzle with remaining marinade.
