Soy and Ginger Flank Steak
Assembly Time: about 20 minutes; Cooking Time: about 15 minutes. Notes: Thaw overnight (the night before serving, place container of frozen food in the refrigerator). Use the marinade to season corn and red and green bell peppers: Remove steak from 1 bag and add 4 husked corn ears (8 to 9 in. each) and 2 halved and seeded bell peppers (1 lb. total) to marinade. Mix, lift out vegetables, and cook on grill beside steak, turning occasionally, until slightly browned, about 10 minutes.
