Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup olive oil
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce.
Whisk in the honey until fully dissolved.
Add the minced garlic, ground black pepper, oregano, paprika, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the marinade. Stir well to combine.
Place your steak or kabobs in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.
Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it is well coated. If using a bag, seal it tightly and massage the marinade into the meat.
Refrigerate the meat for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate. Turn the meat occasionally for even marination.
When ready to cook, remove the meat from the marinade and discard the excess liquid. Pat the meat dry with paper towels for optimal searing or grilling results.
Cook the steak or kabobs to your preferred level of doneness using your desired cooking method (grilling, broiling, or pan-searing). Serve and enjoy!
