Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine vegetable oil, sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper to create the marinade. Coat the flank steak evenly, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, lime juice, honey, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Taste and adjust the spice level as necessary, then set aside.
  3. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes. Remove the flank steak from the marinade and grill for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked to an internal temperature of 130°F for medium-rare. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  4. In serving bowls, spoon a portion of cooked jasmine rice. Layer with sliced grilled steak, followed by green onions, carrots, and cucumber for a colorful presentation.
  5. Drizzle the spicy cream sauce over each bowl and serve immediately.
