It’s time for our monthly Recipe Box Swap, hosted by the ever-so-sweet Randi, at I Have to Say.
Randi has chosen “Your Favorite Recipe” as our theme this month so I decided to make one of TheManoftheHouse’s favorite dinners, Teriyaki Steak. I have a few different recipes for this dish and I’ve kind of combined features of them all for this recipe. I love this dish — it’s perfect for a dinner to make someone feel special or for a busy weeknight dinner (30 minutes start to finish — and it only takes that long because of the rice.)
Teriyaki Steak
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup soy sauce
3 minced garlic cloves
2 T rice vinegar
1 T grated fresh ginger (I’ve also used the dried spice with equal success)
2 t. cornstarch
2 strip steaks, about 1-inch thick
2 T vegetable oil
3 scallions, thinly sliced
2 t. toasted sesame seeds (cook in dry skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until golden and fragrant — about 5 minutes)
Whisk sugar, soy sauce, garlic, rice vinegar, ginger and cornstarch in a medium bowl.
Heat oil in skillet until just “rippling”. Cook steak until well browned and cooked until desired doneness — 4 – 6 minutes per side. Transfer to cutting board and cover with foil.
Wipe oil out of skillet and pour in soy sauce mixture. Simmer over medium-low heat until thickened. Slice steak thinly and place slices on top of bed of rice. Pour sauce over steak. Sprinkle with scallions and toasted sesame seeds. Serves 4.
Enjoy! And don’t forget, tomorrow is my day with the Aurifil blog hop — stay tuned for more!
XOXO,

Hi Anna :)
I’ve bookmarked this recipe, sounds delicious. I’m thinking it might be nice if the steak was grilled as well…
Have a wonderful week,
Niki
Yum! I make something very similar but throw a good helping of sake in there too. Mmmmmmmm.

Yummy and healthy too Anna. Now tell me how you get so much light/white in your inside photos?? Looks good! Yup snow melt 2011 we had 8 more inches last night but a lot melted today. Your new banner is so cute ~ the German Shepard, very loyal and protective. I didn’t hear about the blog hop,I’ll be watching for it.
OOHHH…this looks fantastic! I got Charlie one of those fancy schmancy Japanese rice cookers for his birthday last year. I can program it so the rice is done when I get home from work — perfect for this recipe! (*ahem* yes, the rice cooker was for Charlie…)
This sounds so good! I’ll definitely have to try it. I also wanted to say I absolutely LOVE the little thimbles on the feet of the statue of the dog in your header. So cute!
Is that steak still red???????????????? Oh my goodness. Burn mine please, otherwise sounds yummy. xoxo

Anna, a beautiful block. Your recipe sounds wonderful. I will give it a try.
You’re blogging so fast I can’t keep up! Steak looks delicious, socks look divine, and quilt block looks darling. Is it shabby to leave one comment that address three posts? I hope not. You rock, girlfriend.
