Ingredients

  • 1 lb. steak tips
  • 2 chopped green onions

FOR THE MARINADE

  • ½ cup less-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar (can substitute with balsamic vinegar)
  • 1 teaspoon dried ginger powder (or 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ cup canola oil (or other neutral oil such as vegetable oil or avocado oil)

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together all of the marinade ingredients until completely combined.

  • Add the steak tips and green onions. Toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight). When ready to cook, allow the steak to sit on the counter and come to room temperature while you prepare the grill.

  • Heat the grill over high heat. Remove steak tips from the marinade and discard the marinade. Brush the grates of the grill with oil (to prevent sticking) and place the steak tips directly on the grill. Grill for about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare steak, 5 minutes for medium, and 6 minutes for medium-well. Total cooking time will vary depending on the size and thickness of your steak. For medium-rare, you’re looking for an internal temperature of 130-135 degrees F; for medium steak a temperature of 135-145 degrees F; for medium-well steak a temperature of 145-155 degrees F.

Notes

  • Use the tender pieces cut from beef tenderloin or sirloin. Do not substitute with stew beef, which usually contains tougher cuts of meat (such as a chuck roast or rump roast), and therefore needs to be cooked low and slow (rather than grilled).
  • Nutrition information provided is merely an estimate, assuming about 1 tablespoon of marinade per serving.
  • An instant-read thermometer is always the best way to know when your steak tips are perfectly cooked. See the chart above for suggested cooking time and temp.
  • Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Tuck the meat inside sandwiches the next day, or slice it and use it to top a steak salad!
