Best Quick Steak Marinade

 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!
