Ingredients
  

For the Steak
  • 1 pound Flank Steak Sirloin or ribeye can also be used for a richer flavor.
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil Canola oil is a fine substitute if needed.
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil Omit for a neutral taste if necessary.
  • 1/4 cup Soy Sauce Opt for gluten-free soy sauce for a gluten-free version.
  • 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar Honey or maple syrup can also work.
  • 2 cloves Garlic (minced) Fresh garlic is best.
  • 1 tablespoon Ginger (grated) Ground ginger is a quick alternative.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper Season to taste.
For the Rice Bowl
  • 2 cups Cooked Jasmine Rice Any long-grain rice works as a substitute.
  • 3 stalks Green Onions (chopped) Chives can be swapped in.
  • 1 cup Shredded Carrots Radishes can be used for extra crunch.
  • 1 medium Cucumber (sliced) Bell peppers are a tasty alternative.
For the Spicy Cream Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise Greek yogurt can be used for a lighter version.
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha Sauce Adjust to your preference.
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Juice Lemon juice is a good alternative.
  • 1 tablespoon Honey Maple syrup can be substituted.

Equipment

  • Grill Pan
  • mixing bowl
  • small bowl
  • skillet
  • cutting board

Method
 

Marinate the Steak
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine vegetable oil, sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper. Whisk until the sugar dissolves, then add the flank steak, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Cover and let it marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Prepare the Spicy Cream Sauce
  1. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, lime juice, honey, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy. Adjust spiciness as needed and refrigerate until needed.
Cook the Steak
  1. Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the flank steak from the marinade and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare doneness.
Rest and Slice the Steak
  1. After cooking, transfer to a cutting board and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
Assemble the Bowls
  1. Divide cooked jasmine rice among bowls. Top with sliced steak, chopped green onions, shredded carrots, and sliced cucumber.
Drizzle with Sauce
  1. Generously drizzle the spicy cream sauce over the assembled bowls. Serve immediately.
