1 1/4 lbs. filet mignon cut up into large chunks

1/4-1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce

2 tbsp. brown sugar

2 tbsp. sesame oil

1 tbsp. garlic powder

1 tsp. ground ginger

2 scallions, diced, for garnish

 

Combine all the ingredients except scallions in a ziploc bag and marinate the steak for at least 4 hours.  Turning the bag over every hour or so.

 

Before grilling the steak, empty the marinade into a saucepan and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes or until sauce is reduced and a bit thicker.

 

Preheat a grill pan over high heat.  Once the pan is hot, lower heat to medium-high.  Place steak on the grill pan.  Let it sit there for at least a minute before turning it over.  Cook until desired doneness.  If you like it very well done, you can finish it in the oven. Garnish with the scallions.

 

Enjoy!
