  • 3 tablespoons coco-aminos
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons raw honey
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon grated gingerroot

  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • DO-AHEAD TIP: Marinate flank steak overnight or for at least 4 hours (see recipe).
  • In a large bowl, toss together steak strips and coconut flour until each strip is lightly covered (add more flour if necessary).
  • In a small bowl, place remaining ingredients, except coconut oil; whisk together into a nice, thick marinade.

  • Add remaining marinade and heat through; serve.

Notes
