Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1 (1 1/2-pound) flank steak

  • ¼ cup fresh lime juice

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce

  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic

  • 1 teaspoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)

  • 2 heads romaine lettuce

  • cup fresh mint leaves

  • cup fresh cilantro leaves

  • cup fresh Thai basil leaves

Directions

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Sprinkle pepper and salt onto flank steak.

  2. Cook steak on preheated grill until desired doneness is reached, 5 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).

  3. Whisk lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, garlic, and chile-garlic sauce together in a bowl.

  4. Mix romaine lettuce, mint, cilantro, and basil together in a bowl; spoon about 6 tablespoons lime juice mixture over romaine mixture. Toss to coat.

  5. Cut steak into strips and place strips into remaining lime juice mixture; let sit for steak to marinate, 1 to 2 minutes. Place steak on romaine mixture.
