This sweet and savory Asian dish gets its delicious flavor from hoisin sauce mixed with orange and ginger. Hoisin sauce is a thick, fermented sauce similar to soy sauce. It can be made ahead up to 2 days ahead and prepared in only 20 minutes. While the steak rests, cut 3/4 pound small zucchini lengthwise in half; sprinkle with salt and pepper and spray on both sides with olive oil nonstick spray. Place on the grill rack and grill, turning once, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve this dish with broccoli and rice.
