Juice of 2 limes
3 tbsp (45 mL) finely chopped ginger root
1 tbsp (15 mL) chopped fresh coriander
¼ tsp (1 mL) PC Garlic frozen chopped

  1. In small bowl, whisk together soya sauce, lime juice, ginger, chopped coriander and garlic. Measure out ¼ cup (50 mL); set aside. Transfer remaining soya sauce mixture to large resealable plastic bag and add steak. Seal bag. Chill for at least one hour or overnight.

  4. Toss lettuce and whole coriander leaves with 3 tbsp (45 mL) of the reserved soya sauce mixture.
  5. Thinly slice steak. Serve steak, drizzled with remaining 1 tbsp (15 mL) reserved soya sauce mixture, alongside cooked rice and tossed salad.
