Name: Grilled Hoisin-Soy Steaks with Shiitake and Bok Choy
Prep time: 25 minutes
Total time: 25 minutes
Yield: Makes 2 servings
Ingredients: 4 1/2 tablespoons mirin; 1 1/2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder, or 4 whole star anise, ground; 3 tablespoons hoisin sauce; 3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds; 3 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar; 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce; 1 1/2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil (such as Asian); 2 10- to 12-ounce rib-eye steaks; 4 large shiitake mushrooms, stemmed; 2 baby bok choy, quartered lengthwise

If you can't find some of the ingredients for the steaks at the grocery store, look for them at Asian markets. Star anise is a brown star-shaped seed pod native to China; it is often an ingredient in Chinese five-spice powder.
