Marinated Beef Steak Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Marinade:
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
For the Steak:
- 2 pounds beef steak (ribeye, sirloin, or your preferred cut)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Marinade:
- In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, and brown sugar. Mix well.
- Add minced garlic, black pepper, onion powder, dried rosemary, dried thyme, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
- Marinate the Steak:
- Place the steak in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, making sure it is well coated.
- Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
- Cook the Steak:
- Remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps the steak cook more evenly.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat on the stovetop.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. Discard the marinade.
- Season the steak with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Grill or sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
- Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Serve:
- Slice the steak against the grain and serve with your favorite sides. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Enjoy your delicious marinated beef steak!
