Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 pounds steak (your choice of cut, e.g., ribeye, sirloin, or flank)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, and Dijon mustard. Whisk until well-blended.
Add minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, black pepper, and (if using) red pepper flakes to the bowl. Stir to evenly distribute the seasonings.
Place the steak in a large, resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring all parts are coated. Seal the bag (or cover the dish with plastic wrap).
Marinate the steak in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully develop.
When ready to cook, remove the steak from the marinade and let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to take off the chill.
Discard the marinade and cook the steak to your preferred doneness using your desired method (grilling, pan-searing, or broiling).
Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes after cooking to retain its juices before slicing and serving.
