Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cups Bourbon
- 0.25 cups Soy sauce
- 0.25 cups Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 cups Yellow onion, finely minced
- 4 Garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 tablespoons Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Red chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the bourbon, soy sauce, and olive oil. Stir well to create the liquid base of the marinade.
Add the brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce to the bowl. Whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Mix in the finely minced yellow onion and garlic. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the marinade.
Stir in the fresh rosemary, ground black pepper, and salt. Add red chili flakes for a touch of heat, if desired.
Place your steaks in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully coated.
Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and refrigerate. Allow the steaks to marinate for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight, for maximum flavor.
Before cooking, remove the steaks from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels. Discard the used marinade.
Cook the steaks to your desired doneness using your preferred method such as grilling, pan-searing, or broiling.
