Ingredients
FOR THE DRESSING
8 tablespoons peanut oil
8 tablespoons rice-wine vinegar
2 medium cloves garlic, minced
1 4-inch piece ginger, peeled and minced
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoon soy sauce
1 ½ pounds flank steak
Freshly ground white pepper to taste
FOR THE SALAD
½ head iceberg lettuce, shredded
3 ½ ounces mung-bean sprouts
2 scallions, cut across into ¼-inch slices
1 bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped
16 wonton wrappers, cut in half, fried until golden brown and crushed lightly
Preparation
- Step 1
To make the dressing, whisk together the dressing ingredients; marinate the steak in half of the dressing, seasoning with white pepper to taste, 4 hours or overnight.
- Step 2
To make the salad, prepare a charcoal grill or preheat a broiler. Combine the lettuce, sprouts, scallions, cilantro and wonton wrappers. Toss with 6 tablespoons of the reserved dressing.
- Step 3
Grill the steak until medium rare, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove and let sit for a minute or so. Cut across the grain into thin slices and serve on a bed of salad drizzled with remaining dressing.
