Orange Thai Beef Skewers

Marinade:
1 orange
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c seasoned rice wine vinegar
1 Tbs honey
1 Tbs sesame oil
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp coriander
4 cloves garlic
2-4 tsp Sriracha chili sauce

Steak:
1.5 lbs flank steak (freeze for 20 minutes before cutting to make it easier to slice)
skewers-- if using wooden or bamboo skewers, make sure to soak for at least 30 minutes before using


Zest the orange into a medium bowl.  Then cut the orange in half and add all of the juice.  You should have at least 1/4 c orange juice (more is fine!).  Add in the other marinade ingredients, adding the Sriracha to your liking.  Whisk to combine.

Slice the flank steak across the grain into about 1/4" slices, place in a zip-lock bag and pour the marinade in.  Gently knead the marinade into the meat, and place the bag in the fridge.  Marinate for at least 4 hours, or up to overnight.

Preheat your grill.  Thread the strips of meat on the skewers just like you're stitching.  Avoid over-crowding and stretch the meat out a bit on the skewer to ensure even doneness.  Place them on the grill and flip halfway through.  They'll cook quickly-- only 3-4 minutes per side.  Serve immediately!
