1. Preheat broiler. Place steak on a broiler pan. Broil 2 - 3 inches from heat until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium - rare, a thermometer should read 135°C), 6 - 7 minutes per side. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
2. In a large saucepan, bring ½ inch water to a boil. Add asparagus; cook, uncovered, just until crisp - tender, 3 - 5 minutes. Drain and cool.
3. Mix soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar and ginger; toss with beef and asparagus. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. If desired, serve over lettuce with carrot, radishes, cilantro and lime wedges.
