Soy/Ginger Marinated Flank Steak

1.8-2 lb. flank steak
1 c. soy sauce
1/3 – ½ c. packed brown sugar
1 Tbsp. chopped ginger (may use bottled)
1 Tbsp. chopped garlic (may use bottled)
¼ c. vegetable oil (NOT olive oil)

Cut flank steak into 1” strips against grain and place in 1 gallon zip lock bag. Set aside. In blender combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger and blend briefly. Slowly add the vegetable oil while the blender continues to whirl, about 15 seconds. Taste and adjust ginger or garlic to your liking. Pour directly into zip lock bag and refrigerate. Let marinade for at least 4 hours. Place on medium-hot grill and grill to liking.

This freezes really well. Once marinating, make sure all the air is out of the freezer bag and lay it flat on its side on a cookie sheet. When needed, just thaw in fridge and grill.
