Steps

1. 1

   Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, excluding the steaks. Use kitchen shears to snip through the center gristle of each steak once to prevent them from curling while cooking. Dry off the steaks and coat them evenly with the miso mixture. Allow the steaks to sit for 10 to 20 minutes before proceeding.

2. 2

   Get the grill ready for direct-heat cooking by preheating it over medium-hot charcoal (or medium-high heat if using gas). Refer to the grilling procedure for more details.

3. 3

   Prepare the grill by oiling the rack. Grill the steaks for 4 to 6 minutes in total for a medium-rare doneness, turning them over once during cooking. If using a gas grill, keep it covered while grilling.
