Instructions
Zest the limes to measure 1 teaspoon of lime zest, then juice the 4 medium limes into a large zip-top bag. Add the 3 tablespoons soy sauce, the chopped green onions, the 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger, and the 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Seal the bag and press out excess air so the marinade coats the bag’s interior.
Add the 1½-pound flank steak to the bag, seal, and refrigerate for about 1 hour, turning the bag occasionally so the steak marinates evenly.
About 10 minutes before grilling, heat the grill to high and clean and oil or spray the grates.
Remove the steak from the bag and discard the marinade. Pat the steak dry with paper towels, then season both sides with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Place the steak on the hot grill, cover, and cook, turning once, about 6 minutes per side or until it reaches your desired doneness. Check doneness with an instant-read thermometer (about 145°F for medium-rare and 160°F for medium).
Transfer the steak to a cutting board, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 5–10 minutes. Slice the steak thinly against the grain and serve.
