Steak Teriyaki

From Cook's Country, this recipe comes together pretty quickly and painlessly, although there's also not much to it -- you'll definitely want to serve it with some sort of vegetable side dish.

Ingredients

• Sauce
• 75mL packed brown sugar
• 60mL soy sauce
• 60mL mirin
• 30mL rice or cane vinegar
• 30mL water
• 10mL cornstarch
• 1mL red pepper flakes
• ~500g boneless strip steak or similar
• black pepper
• 2 scallions, thinly sliced

Procedure

1. Whisk together all sauce ingredients in a bowl.
2. Season steak with pepper.
3. Cook steak in an oiled skillet over medium heat until the outside is well browned and the inside reads 125°F, ~medium rare, about 5 minutes/side.
4. Reduce heat to medium low and add sauce to skillet. Deglaze, bring to a simmer, and cook until sauce thickens.
5. Remove from heat. Remove steak to cutting board, let rest 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
6. Serve over rice, top with sauce and scallions.
