TANGY FLANK STEAK SANDWICHES



Tangy Flank Steak Sandwiches image

This recipe is from Sunset magazine, probably back in the 80's. My mom used to make it for us for Father's Day every year. DH and I now make it, but we don't make sandwiches. We do double the sauce to pour over the meat on our plates. Instead of making sandwiches, we dip french bread in the extra sauce. It tastes great leftover too.

SWEET AND TANGY FLANK STEAK (OAMC OR MAKE AHEAD)



Sweet and Tangy Flank Steak (Oamc or Make Ahead) image

This recipe is from Super Suppers, the franchise that allows families to prepare meals ahead of time in their central kitchen. They do the prep, you do the assembly for quick dinners from the freezer. I love flank steak and this sweet/spicy combination appealed to me. The addition of pepper is mine and the way I like this dish.

Provided by justcallmetoni

Categories     Steak

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup sliced scallion, white and green parts
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
1 -1 1/2 teaspoon gingerroot, minced
1/4 teaspoon chili pepper flakes (optional)
2 lbs flank steaks

Steps:

  • Mix together all ingredients except steak together in a bowl. Fold steak into thirds, placing outer edges towards the center. Place steak into a resealable freezer bag. Add marinade and squish around so that all of the steak surface is covered. Place into a second bag, seal and label.
  • Freeze steak for up to 2 month. To prepare, remove 2 days ahead and defrost in the fridge.
  • To prepare, pre-heat grill or broiler. Remove steak from bag and pour sauce into a small sauce pan. Bring sauce to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Grill or broil steak for 5 minutes per side or until steak reaches 135 degrees. Remove steak from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • To serve, thinly slice steak across the grain and spoon a bit of sauce on top.
  • (if you are not preparing this as a make ahead meal, marinade meat for 2 to 4 hours before cooking.).

Tips:

  • Choose the right flank steak: Look for a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick and has a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple one made with olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices is a good choice.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: Flank steak is best cooked over high heat so that it sears quickly and remains tender. You can cook it on a grill, in a grill pan, or in a hot skillet.
  • Let the steak rest before slicing: Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and juicy.
  • Slice the steak against the grain: When slicing the steak, be sure to slice it against the grain. This will make the steak more tender and easier to chew.

Conclusion:

Tangy flank steak sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or a quick weeknight dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying sandwich that will be enjoyed by everyone. So fire up the grill or heat up your skillet and give these tangy flank steak sandwiches a try!
