Ice cream can be topped with a delightful chocolate candy shell in less than five minutes using only two ingredients. I came up with this recipe after attempting recipe after recipe, each of which produced results that were either thick and sticky or rock hard. Your preferred ice cream will receive a drizzle.

| Yield: | 1 (2 1/2-pound) steak |
Ingredients
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- ½ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 (2.5 pound) flank steak
Instructions
- Combine oil, soy sauce, water, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and pepper in a small bowl. Mix until combined.
- Cut shallow slashes in a crosshatch pattern on both sides of the steak, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- Place steak in a low, flat dish and pour marinade on top, covering meat completely. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight, turning steak over once.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven’s broiler. Remove steak from the marinade and place on a baking pan. Reserve marinade.
- Broil, brushing occasionally with marinade, until browned and heated through, about 5 minutes per side. Remove steak to a platter and cover loosely with foil. Let rest for at least 5 minutes. Slice into 1- to 2-inch strips across the grain.
- Cook steak on the grill if preferred. Grill directly on the grate, brushing occasionally with the marinade.

Reviews
I’ve always been nervous to broil, but this recipe turned out perfectly! I followed the recipe to a T! I definitely recommend marinating the flank steak overnight and pull it out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. This was so flavorful and cooked to a perfect medium rare!
