Directions
Marinade and Dressing
In a bowl, combine the lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, ginger, and chilies.
Divide the marinade in half. Add the oil to one half, which will be the marinade. Refrigerate both until needed.
Grilled Thai Beef
Place the ribeye in a gallon ziplock bag and add the marinade with the oil.
Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours, flipping once every hour.
Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for high heat.
Remove the beef from the marinade and discard the marinade.
Grill the beef until your desired doneness. Let rest for 10 minutes then thinly slice.
Toss the sliced beef with the reserved marinade (without the oil) for 30 minutes.
Thai Salad
Lay a bed of salad greens on a plate. Lay strips of the rib-eye over the lettuce. Top with the cilantro, mint leaves, and crushed pan-roasted peanuts. Optionally garnish with a finely chopped red Thai chili to give some complementary color.
