Recipe: Vietnamese-style Beer Marinated Flank Steak

The rich smoky flavor of Smoked Wheat really shines through in this Vietnamese-style Beer Marinated Flank Steak. If you have the time, we recommend marinating the steak overnight, but you can still achieve a great flavor after soaking for just a few hours in the fridge. After cooking, serve in Vietnamese-style tacos or lettuce wraps, or over rice or noodles.

What You Need

1 cup Smoked Wheat (or another smoky full-flavored beer)
1/4 cup fish sauce
2 limes, juice and zest
2 tablespoons honey
2 garlic cloves, minced
2-3 bird chili peppers, minced
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
1 flank steak (~1 1/2 pounds)
cilantro, for serving

What You Do

In a bowl combine beer, fish sauce, lime zest and juice, honey, garlic, chilies and cucumber, whisk to combine.
Trim and cut flank steak into strips against the grain.
Put steak in a zip lock bag and pour marinade over. Let marinate in the refrigerator at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
Heat steak and marinade over medium-high heat, cook until the steak is cooked through and the marinade has thickened to a sauce.
Serve in Vietnamese-style tacos or lettuce wraps, or over rice or noodles. Top with cilantro. Enjoy.
