I found this marinade on-line and I gave it a try. Oh my goodness, is this a great marinade for beef. I marinated a boneless sirloin steak and the results were amazing. I wanted to add this recipe to the Cafe.
Ingredients:
- 4-6 8 ounce steaks (or a Sirloin steak)
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 T Worcestershire sauce
- 1 T honey
- 1 t dried Italian seasoning
- 1 t garlic powder
- 1 t dried mustard
- chopped parsely (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. In a bowl, whisk together our balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, honey, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and dried mustard.
2. Add the steaks and the marinade to a zip lock bag, tossing the steaks a few times to coat the meat with the marinade. Press out the excess air, seal the bag, and chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours.
3. Prepare a grill. Remove the steaks from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the meat to desired doneness and remove from the grill. Place the meat on a cutting board and cover with aluminum foil. Allow the meat to rest for 5-10 minute, then serve.
Cook's Notes:
The original recipe said to only marinate for "15-30" minutes, but I marinated the sirloin steak for 2 hours and the results fantastic. What I like about this marinade is that the ingredients are all fairly common to most kitchens. Please give this a try the next time you grill a steak. You won't be disappointed!
