- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup pineapple juice
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

- Remove the steak and pineapple from the grill and let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
- Serve the grilled teriyaki marinated flank steak with the grilled pineapple slices and enjoy!
The history of Teriyaki Marinated Flank Steak grilled with pineapple slices is a fusion of Japanese and Hawaiian flavors. This dish originated in Hawaii, where Japanese immigrants brought their teriyaki marinating techniques and combined them with the island's abundant pineapples. The result is a mouthwatering blend of sweet and savory flavors that has become a staple in Hawaiian cuisine. Chefs like Roy Yamaguchi and Alan Wong have popularized this dish in their renowned restaurants, showcasing the unique fusion of flavors. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in Hawaiian restaurants, where the use of high-quality flank steak and fresh pineapple is crucial for an authentic and delicious experience. The key to getting this dish right lies in the balance of the teriyaki marinade and the grilling of the pineapple slices, which impart a caramelized sweetness to the steak. An alternative method to consider is using a traditional Japanese yakitori grill for a more authentic preparation.
