Grilled Flank Steak with Five Spice Rub & Sesame Soy Sauce

Fine Cooking, the rub and sauce will serve 2 flank steaks.

Ingredients

1 1/2 lb Flank steak

Rub:

  • 2 tablespoons ground coriander
  • 4 teaspoons Five-spice powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground fennel seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 1/4 teaspoon hot chilli powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt

1 tablespoon brown sugar

Sauce:

  • 1/3 cup seasame oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1/3 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon five-spice powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground fennel seeds
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Directions

  1. Rub:  in a mortar, blend all the spices/sugar/salt together.  Rub will last a couple of months in a air-tight container.
  2. Sauce:  in a small bowl, whisk all ingredients together.  Sauce will keep for 3 or 4 days in the refrigerator.
  3. Just before lighting the fire, rub the steak with rub – about 1 tablespoon per side.
  4. Heat grill to high and just before placing on grill, drizzle both sides of the flank steak with the oil.
  5. Grill steak for about 8 minutes, flipping it a couple of times during cooking.  It should be rare to medium rare – let relax off the grill for 5 minutes, cover with foil.
  6. Carve thinly across the grain on a 45 degree angle.  Drizzle with the sauce.
