Ingredients:
Preparation:
1. Marinate the Steak: In a large bowl, combine the flank steak, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Toss to coat and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
2. Prepare the Vegetables: In a separate bowl, combine the red onion, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, cremini mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Cook the Steak: Heat your flat top griddle to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the marinade. Cook the steak for 2-3 minutes per side, or until desired level of doneness. Remove from the griddle and set aside.
4. Cook the Vegetables: Add the vegetables to the hot griddle and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender-crisp.
5. Create the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to form a slurry. Add the slurry to the pan with the vegetables and stir until the sauce thickens.
6. Assemble the Dish: Serve the grilled steak over the stir-fried vegetables, drizzled with the thickened sauce.
