This is a better-for-you version of beef teriyaki – an Asian dish that is well-known here in the United States. You can also substitute the beef in this dish for chicken breast or tofu. Or, use the teriyaki as a sauce for cooked vegetables.

However … Note to others … Flank Steak and London Broil are two completely different cuts. Flank Steak is sometimes referred to as Skirt Steak and London Broil is the Top Round cut. Very different parts of the animal with different textures and cooking requirements.
