Wasabi-Miso Marinated Flank Steak

Although you may need to make a trip to the Asian market to pick up miso and mirin, look for wasabi powder in your supermarket's spice aisle; it's much milder than the kind found in Japanese markets.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 ounces steak)

Ingredients

• 1/4  cup  yellow miso (soybean paste)
• 1/4  cup  mirin (sweet rice wine)
• 1/4  cup  dry white wine
• 1  tablespoon  wasabi powder
• 1  tablespoon  rice vinegar
• 1  (1-pound) flank steak, trimmed
• Cooking spray

Preparation

Combine first 5 ingredients in a small bowl; stir well with a whisk. Combine miso mixture and steak in a large zip-top plastic bag. Seal and marinate in refrigerator 2 hours.

Prepare grill or broiler.

Remove steak from bag, reserving marinade. Place steak on grill rack or broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Grill or broil 6 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness, basting occasionally with reserved marinade.
