Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine ¼ cup of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of grated fresh ginger, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Whisk until well blended.
  2. Place steak in a large resealable bag or dish, pour marinade over the steak, ensuring all surfaces are coated. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  3. While the steak marinates, wash and chop your mixed vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high temperature (around 400°F). Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Remove steak from the refrigerator and let excess marinade drip off. Place on the hot grill, cooking for 3-5 minutes per side.
  6. Once grilled, transfer the steak to a plate and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
  7. Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the grill, followed by your chopped vegetables. Grill for 4-5 minutes, tossing occasionally.
  8. Slice the steak thinly against the grain into strips.
  9. Arrange the sliced steak and grilled vegetables on a serving platter. Drizzle some of the remaining marinade over the top.
  10. Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
