We use this marinade on flank steaks and flat iron steaks. It also makes a restaurant-quality teriyaki chicken. The key to the marinade is letting the meat marinate for at least several hours. You can do it up to 1-2 days in advance and if the meat marinates for this long the resulting steak will melt in your mouth just like candy.
