Steak Marinade
This steak marinade makes for the most tender cuts of meat. Use it with any type of steak and enjoy the most delicious, succulent steak.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar packed
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Combine the ingredients for the marinade in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour the marinade over your steak in a zip lock bag or a reusable container. This recipe is enough to cover approximately 2 pounds of meat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours. To maximize tenderizing, I like to marinate for at least 4 hours.
- To make your steak, remove them from the marinade and discard the rest. Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Add the steaks and cook for about 5 minutes on each side or until the steak reaches the desired doneness. I like to remove my steaks from the heat when they reach 135 degrees Fahrenheit as measured with an instant read thermometer. Let the meat rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.
