Cooking Light, MAY 1996
Yeah, I’m not so great with cooking meat for some reason. This Asian Flank Steak was mighty tasty, but I undercooked it at first…like WAY undercooked it. I didn’t have the right kind of vinegar so I used balsamic instead. I think it tasted better than rice wine vinegar would have. We served this flank steak with spicy peanut sauce over linguine an Asian mixed vegetables out the freezer.
