Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 3 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional, for extra heat)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce, honey, and Dijon mustard. Whisk well until the ingredients are fully blended.
Add minced garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the mixture. Stir thoroughly to mix the spices evenly.
Place your steaks in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully submerged and coated.
Seal the bag (if using) or cover the dish with plastic wrap. Place the steaks in the refrigerator and let them marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours for more intense flavor.
Before cooking, remove the steaks from the marinade and let them rest at room temperature for 15–20 minutes.
Discard the used marinade and cook your steaks to your desired level of doneness, either on the grill, stovetop, or broiler.
