SPICY STEAK MARINADE



Spicy Steak Marinade image

My family loves this slightly spicy marinade, we've even cooked it down and added tomato sauce and made it into a type of basting/barbeque sauce. Place steaks in a resealable plastic bag and pour marinade over the top. Allow to rest for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for best flavor and tenderness.

SWEET AND SPICY GRILLED FLANK STEAK



Sweet and Spicy Grilled Flank Steak image

There are some steaks that need nothing more than a little salt and pepper to bring out their beefy goodness. Flank steak is not one of them. This bold marinade is just the sort of seasoning the brawny cut begs for: lime juice and zest add brightness, brown sugar sweetness, and jalapeño and sriracha a complex heat. Just whiz it all together in a food processor and slather it on the meat. Marinate overnight (or 20 minutes if that's all the time you have) before tossing it on the grill. Lastly, always make more flank steak that you think you want. Leftovers are the best part.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons coarsely chopped scallions
1 tablespoon peeled and finely chopped ginger
1 fresh jalapeño, seeded if desired, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
Zest of 1/2 lime
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 teaspoon sriracha or other hot sauce (or to taste)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds flank steak

Steps:

  • In a food processor, pulse together scallion, ginger, jalapeño, garlic, sugar, lime zest and juice, and sriracha. With the motor running, pour in oil until smooth.
  • Season steak with salt. Place in a large bowl and pour marinade over meat. Turn to coat well with the mixture. Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • When you are ready to cook the steak, heat the grill to medium-high heat, or heat the broiler with the rack set 4 inches from the heat source. Transfer meat to the grill and cook, covered, until it reaches the desired doneness (about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare), or broil until charred and done to taste, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.

Tips:

  • For a more flavorful marinade, use a variety of spices and herbs. Some good options include garlic, onion, paprika, cumin, coriander, and oregano.
  • Be sure to marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
  • If you are using a thicker steak, you may need to marinate it for longer. A good rule of thumb is to marinate the steak for 30 minutes per inch of thickness.
  • When you are ready to cook the steak, be sure to preheat your grill or pan to a high heat. This will help to sear the steak and lock in the juices.
  • Cook the steak for the desired amount of time. For a rare steak, cook for 2-3 minutes per side. For a medium steak, cook for 4-5 minutes per side. For a well-done steak, cook for 6-7 minutes per side.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the steak.

Conclusion:

This sweet and spicy marinade is a great way to add flavor to your next steak. The combination of brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and chili powder creates a delicious and complex flavor that will please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook steak, give this marinade a try.
