Soy and Ginger Flank Steak





Yields
Makes 2 main dishes, 4 servings each

Assembly Time: about 20 minutes; Cooking Time: about 15 minutes. Notes: Thaw overnight (the night before serving, place container of frozen food in the refrigerator). Use the marinade to season corn and red and green bell peppers: Remove steak from 1 bag and add 4 husked corn ears (8 to 9 in. each) and 2 halved and seeded bell peppers (1 lb. total) to marinade. Mix, lift out vegetables, and cook on grill beside steak, turning occasionally, until slightly browned, about 10 minutes.

 2 flank steaks (about 1 1/4 lb. each), fat-trimmed
 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
 4 teaspoons minced garlic
 1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
 6 tablespoons dry red wine
 3 tablespoons honey

Cold Facts. Packaging: freezer bags. If ingredients include liquid, set each plastic freezer bag upright in a bowl, then fill. Squeeze out all air and seal bag. For better protection of frozen foods during storage, seal each bag inside a second one. Lay bags flat in freezer until solid so they will stack.
