Recipe View Marinate the Steak: Place the flank steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a glass dish. Score the steak lightly on both sides with a sharp knife to allow the marinade to penetrate deeply. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is fully submerged. Seal the bag or cover the dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight. (8-24 hours)

Recipe View Grill the Steak: Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the marinade. Place the steak on the preheated grill and cook for approximately 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 130-135°F for medium-rare. (10-14 minutes)

Recipe View Rest and Serve: Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing against the grain. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak. Serve immediately and enjoy! (10 minutes)

For an even deeper flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of gochujang (Korean chili paste) to the marinade.
If you don't have meat tenderizer, you can substitute it with 1/4 cup of pineapple juice, which contains natural enzymes that help tenderize the meat.
Marinating for longer than 24 hours can result in a mushy texture, so be mindful of the marinating time.
Serve with a side of rice, kimchi, and your favorite Korean side dishes for a complete and authentic meal.
