This Grilled Steak Marinade is a bold, savory blend of soy sauce, garlic, vinegar, and spices that transforms any cut of steak into a juicy, flavorful masterpiece with minimal effort.

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar or honey
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: 1 tsp fresh rosemary or thyme
  • Optional: 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Whisk together all marinade ingredients in a bowl or shake in a resealable bag.
  2. Add steak to the marinade, ensuring it is fully coated.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, ideally 4–8 hours for best flavor.
  4. Remove steak from fridge 30 minutes before grilling to come to room temperature.
  5. Grill steak over medium-high heat, flipping once, until desired doneness (about 4–6 minutes per side).
  6. Let the steak rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Do not reuse marinade that has touched raw meat.
  • Extra (unused) marinade can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 week.
  • Try swapping vinegar with lemon or lime juice for a citrus variation.
  • Works great on chicken or tofu with adjusted marinating times.
  • Perfect for ribeye, sirloin, flank, or skirt steak.
