Slice flank steak across the grain into 16 strips, ¼ to ½ inch thick. Pound each to about ⅛“ thick and season with salt and pepper. Place one asparagus spear and one scallion spear across the short end of a strip of beef. Roll beef around vegetables and secure with a toothpick.

Spoon glaze over each serving. Serve with rice.
