Flank Steak With Zucchini image

Marinate the meat at leisure, allow enough time to salt the zucchini to extract excess moisture and you are ready for speed-dial cooking. Once cooked, the dish can also bide its time, to anchor a summer buffet at room temperature.

Time 5h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons mirin
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon five-spice powder
1 3/4 to 2-pound flank steak
2 pounds zucchini, trimmed
Salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon slivered ginger
4 scallions, chopped
Leaves from 20 stems cilantro

Steps:

  • Mix soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, vinegar, sugar and five-spice powder in a bowl. Place meat in a shallow dish, cover with mixture, turn, cover and marinate 3 to 5 hours in refrigerator.
  • Meanwhile, julienne zucchini lengthwise, preferably using a mandoline for longer strips than in a food processor. Separate into strings, place in a bowl, toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and set aside for one hour. Rinse and squeeze dry on paper towels.
  • Heat grill. Drain marinade from meat into a saucepan. Grill steak 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium rare. Set aside on a cutting board.
  • Heat oil in a skillet. Add garlic and ginger, saute a couple of minutes, add zucchini and stir-fry until wilted. Stir in scallions and cilantro. Season with salt. Spread on a platter. Bring marinade to a simmer. Slice meat thin on the bias and arrange on zucchini. Pour hot marinade over meat and serve.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I needed to add more salt and pepper to the steak.

I found that the steak was a bit dry. I think I cooked it for too long. Next time, I'll cook it for a shorter amount of time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a spicy marinade for the steak. Next time, I'll use a milder marinade.
