Ingredients

Marinade Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
  • Salt, to taste
  • Ground black pepper, to taste

Steak

  • 1 1/2 pound steak (your choice of cut)

Instructions

  1. Whisk Marinade Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce, 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, and 1 Tablespoon minced garlic. Whisk the ingredients thoroughly until well blended.
  2. Marinate the Steak: Place 1 1/2 pound steak in a bowl or a resealable zip-top bag. Pour the prepared marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated. Seal the container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes; for best flavor, marinate for 4 hours or longer.
  3. Preheat the Grill: Prepare your grill by preheating it to medium-high heat. Clean the grates and lightly oil them to prevent sticking.
  4. Grill the Steak: Place the marinated steak on the hot grill. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes on one side until nicely browned. Flip the steak and grill for an additional 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare (135°F), 5 to 7 minutes for medium (140°F), or 8 to 10 minutes for medium-well done (160°F).
  5. Rest the Steak: Remove the steak from the grill and tent it loosely with foil. Let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute for a juicier bite.
  6. Serve: Slice the steak against the grain. Optionally, top with a slice of butter and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.

Notes

  • Marinating for longer enhances the flavor and tenderness of the steak.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check doneness for precision cooking.
  • Choose your preferred cut of steak - ribeye, sirloin, or flank work great.
  • Letting the steak rest after grilling is key to juicy meat.
  • You can adjust the garlic and soy sauce quantity to suit taste preferences.
