Grilled Flank Steak with Hoisin Sauce and Ginger Broccoli

Yum Yum Yum...that's about all I can say about this marinade. It's a heavier, thicker marinade, but so full of flavor.

Broccoli is one of my favorite vegi's...it's also becoming one of the most boring for me. The Ginger Broccoli recipe added a new flare to a boring old vegi.

Grilled Flank Steak with Hoisin Sauce
Serves 4
  • 1 pound Flank steak
  • 1/2 cup Hoisin sauce
  • 3 tablespoons Fresh orange juice
  • 3 tablespoons Sherry
  • 2 tablespoons Grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Dark sesame oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Ground pepper
Combine all ingredients except steak together. Reserve 3/4 cup hoisin mixture. Pour remaining hoisin mixture over steak in a ziploc bag.

Marinate in fridge 4-8 hours. Remove steak from bag and discard marinade.

Prepare grill. Place steak on grill and grill for 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove steak. Let it stand for 5 minutes.

Cut steak diagonally across the grain. Pour remaining sauce over steak before serving.

GINGER BROCCOLI
Serves 4
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 heads broccoli (about 2 pounds), florets separated, stalks trimmed, peeled, and thinly sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • 1 piece fresh ginger (1 inch long), peeled and slivered
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • coarse salt and ground pepper

In a large skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium; add broccoli, garlic, and ginger. Cook until broccoli is bright green and ginger is fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Add 1/2 cup water; cover, and cook until broccoli is crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat; add lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine. Serve.
