Beef and Marinade

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Marinate the Beef

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, rice vinegar, minced ginger, minced garlic, and black pepper. Mix well. Add the beef tenderloin to the marinade, making sure it is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Grill the Beef

    Remove the beef from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting. Grill the beef tenderloin for about 5-7 minutes per side for medium-rare, basting with the reserved marinade occasionally.

  4. 4

    Let it Rest

    Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the beef from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the beef tenderloin into 5oz portions. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
