- 2 eggs whites
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Garlic Fennel Flank Steak with Oranges
While this dish may appear to be inspired by Italian or Spanish influences (which it is), it's also a take on one of my favorite Chinese dishes: spicy orange beef. I love to grill flank steak with a highly-flavored rub of garlic, fennel, salt and black pepper.
