Directions:
Cooking - Marinating Steak - pierce meat all over with fork. Place in sealable freezer bag with 1 cup marinade such as teriyaki sauce or salad dressing. Refrigerate 12-24 hours. Discard marinade. Grill, broil or pan fry over medium-high heat, turning twice with tongs. Beef is best when cooked only to medium rare or internal temperature of 63ºC (145ºF).

Marinating Strips/Kabob Cubes - combine ½ cup marinade plus 2 tbsp. cornstarch in sealable freezer bag. Add 1 lb. beef cubes/strips and refrigerate 30 minutes. For cubes, discard marinade and thread onto skewers. Grill or broil 4 to 5 minutes per side or until browned, but pink inside. For strips, reserve marinade; cook strips over medium high in hot lightly oiled non-stick skillet for about 2 minutes, turning twice; until browned but pink inside. Remove from skillet; add stir fry vegetables and cook 5 minutes. Add reserved marinade and beef; heat until sauce bubbles and thickens.

Grilling Kabobs/Strips - season skewered beef kabobs or satay strips. Grill or broil over medium high heat 5 minutes per side until browned but slightly pink inside.

Cooking Stir Fry Strips - season strips. Cook beef in hot, lightly oiled, non-stick skillet over medium heat for 1 minute per side for strips; or until browned, but still pink inside. Beef is best when cooked to medium rare or internal temperature of 63ºC (145ºF). Remove from pan. Add sliced vegetables to skillet and cook 5 minutes. Add 1 cup stir fry sauce and cooked beef strips and heat through.

Grilling Steak/Medallions - season steak/medallions. Grill, broil or pan fry to 63ºdoneness using medium high heat turning twice. Let steak/medallion rest a few minutes before serving or slicing.
