Drunken Steak

Drunken Steak

(4-6 servings)

Ingredients:

1 cup Light Rum

½ cup Soy Sauce

1 tbsp. Dark Brown Sugar

1 tbsp. Fresh Ginger, grated

1 large clove Fresh Garlic, minced

1 medium Scallion, minced

1½-2 lb. Flank Steak

Directions:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the rum through garlic until sugar dissolves.  Reserve ¼ cup for later.  Place the rum mixture and steak in a gallon size zip-lock bag.  Reduce air and seal bag before placing in a 9x13 baking dish and refrigerating 1 to 4 hours.  Add the scallions to the reserved rum mixture and set aside.  Remove steak from bag and dry with paper towels before placing on the pre-heated grill.  Grill steak over high heat until browned and cooked to desired doneness (4-7 minutes per side).  Transfer steak to a cutting board, tent with foil and let rest 5-10 minutes.  Using a sharp knife with a fork, slice thinly on the bias and against the grain.  Place slices on a serving platter, drizzle with the scallion and rum mixture and serve.

Note:               You can use this marinade with other steak cuts too.  Some good ones to try include skirt steak, tri-tip and top sirloin.
