Directions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, and chili flakes with ¼ cup|60 ml water. Add the steak and toss to coat. Cover and marinate for 2 hours.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and let sit at room temperature. Light a grill. Season the steak with salt and rub it with a bit of oil. Drizzle the scallions with oil as well. Grill the steak, flipping once, until cooked to desired doneness. Grill the scallions, turning as needed, until charred, about 3 minutes. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Place the steak slices on a platter along with the scallions and sprinkle with the crispy onions.
