Instructions:
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, brown sugar, grated ginger root, and 1 teaspoon of the chopped coriander leaves.
- Add the vegetable oil and soy sauce into the bowl and mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
- Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
- Pour the prepared marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated.
- Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Allow the steak to marinate for at least 1 hour, but preferably up to 4 hours, to let the flavors meld.
- About 30 minutes before cooking, remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. This helps ensure even cooking.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, or heat a large skillet over medium-high heat if using the stovetop.
- Remove the steak from the marinade, shaking off any excess, and discard the remaining marinade.
- Grill or sear the flank steak for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on your desired doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F (54-57°C). Adjust cooking time as needed for different degrees of doneness.
- Transfer the cooked steak to a cutting board and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more flavorful and tender meat.
- After resting, slice the steak thinly against the grain.
- Garnish with the remaining 1 teaspoon of chopped coriander leaves for a fresh finish.
- Serve the ginger-coriander teriyaki flank steak with your favorite side dishes such as steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad. Enjoy the delicious and aromatic flavors of this dish!
