This was awesome! I marinated the steak for 3 days because dinner plans kept changing, I think that this probably only improved the flavor. It's a sweet dish, my fiancé said it reminded him of the "steak on a stick" that you'd get at a Chinese restaurant. I served it over a salad with garlic expressions dressing. I will absolutely make this again!!!!
Miso-Marinated Skirt Steak
Skirt steak is a flavorful cut but tends to be tough. In this miso-marinated steak recipe, sake acts as a tenderizer. To easily trim the fat, roll up steak jelly-roll fashion. Use a sharp knife to slice away the fat as you unroll the steak.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 ounces steak)
