Ingredients
For the Marinated Steaks
- ½ cup onion chopped
- 6 garlic chopped, cloves
- 1 piece ginger about 1-inch, fresh, peeled and chopped
- 2 cups pineapple juice
- ½ cup soy sauce regular strength
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 5 TB apple cider vinegar
- 1 TB sesame oil Asian
- table salt
- 4 New York steak about 1 inch thick, boneless
Salsa
- 1 tomato seeded and diced, large vine-ripened
- ½ red onion diced
- 20 oz pineapple drained, diced or crushed
- ¼ cup cilantro freshly chopped
- 1 lime juiced, fresh
- 2 tsp honey pure
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper freshly ground
Optional:
- cilantro lime slices for garnish, and soft corn tortillas, freshly chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Marinade the Steaks (do ahead): In a large bowl, whisk together the onion, garlic, ginger, pineapple juice, soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, and Asian sesame oil. Whisk until sugar is dissolved and marinade is well incorporated. Marinade can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead of time.
- Use paper towels to thoroughly pat-dry the steaks. Use a fork to pierce steaks throughout. Lightly sprinkle on both sides with table salt. Toss steaks in bowl of marinade to coat well. Cover and chill several hours or overnight. Be sure to turn pieces over halfway through, if all pieces aren't completely immersed in marinade.
- Make the Salsa (do ahead): Combine all salsa ingredients in a bowl, toss well, and let chill until ready to use.
- Grease and heat outdoor grill (or indoor grill pan) to medium-high. Remove steaks from marinade and grill (basting with marinade as desired) taking care not to over-cook, until medium-rare. About 2 to 3 min/side, but cook time largely depends on your grill heat and thickness of your steaks. Discard any remaining marinade. Let cooked steaks rest at room temp 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
- Serve with salsa with soft corn tortillas, garnishing as desired.
Notes
- This recipe makes a wonderful steak all by itself, too. You can serve the flavorful steaks alongside rice, potatoes, or with salad.
- Flank steaks can be used, if preferred.
- If needed, check that soy sauce is gluten-free - tamari soy sauce certified GF.
