Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds sirloin steak
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1.5 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 stalks green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, freshly grated ginger, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, olive oil, ground black pepper, and salt to make the marinade.
Place the sirloin steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.
Remove the steak from the marinade and let it come to room temperature while you heat a grill pan or barbecue grill to medium-high heat.
Lightly grease the grill or grill pan with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place the steak on the hot grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your desired level of doneness.
Remove the steak from the grill and loosely tent it with aluminum foil. Let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the steak against the grain for maximum tenderness and serve garnished with chopped green onions, if desired.
