Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    In a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker, combine ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce, ¼ cup honey, 6 finely chopped garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger, 1 to 2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce, and ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon. Add 1½ pounds flank steak (cut crosswise into 2½-inch-thick strips) and turn to coat. Cover and cook until the meat shreds easily, 7 to 8 hours on low or 5 to 6 hours on high.

  2. Step 2.

    Fifteen minutes before serving, thinly slice 4 scallions lengthwise and cut into 2½-inch pieces. In a large bowl, toss the scallions with 4 cups thinly sliced iceberg lettuce, ½ cup cilantro leaves, and 1 tablespoon rice vinegar.

  3. Step 3.

    Remove the beef from the slow cooker and serve it in 8 small flour tortillas, topped with the lettuce mixture. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, if using.
