Ingredients

	1 spray(s) cooking spray
	12 oz lean sirloin beef, sliced crosswise into twenty to twenty-four 1/2-inch thick strips
	4 medium scallion(s), cut off ends
	1/3 cup(s) low-sodium soy sauce
	2 tsp peanut oil, roasted-variety
	1/2 tsp garlic powder
	2 Tbsp honey
	1 tsp ginger root, fresh, finely grated

Instructions

• Preheat broiler. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
  
  
• Wrap 5 to 6 beef strips tightly around each scallion and secure each piece of beef with a piece of a wooden toothpick; transfer negi maki to prepared baking sheet. (Note: Break toothpicks in half to secure beef around scallions – this prevents them from charring under the broiler since less wood is exposed. To be extra cautious, soak them in water first.)
  
  
• In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oil and garlic powder. Remove 2 tablespoons of soy sauce mixture and brush it over beef and scallions. Whisk honey and ginger into remaining soy sauce mixture.
  
  
• Broil negi maki 5 inches from heat source, for 5 minutes; flip and broil until beef is cooked through, about 5 minutes more. Serve negi maki with soy-ginger sauce for dipping. Yields 1 piece of negi maki and about 1 1/2 tablespoons of dipping sauce per serving.
