Steak Marinade Recipe

I bought steaks at the local grocery store for 3lbs for $16.50, the price was not too bad considering the size of the steaks.

Now you have to marinade the steaks first. 

Ingredients are inspired by All Recipes.com Steak Marinade 

1/3 cup of Kikkoman Low Sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup lemon juice (You can buy the lemon juice in a container to save time)
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce (I made a substitute: Look below for that recipe)
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder
3 tablespoons dried basil
1 1/2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE SUBSTITUTE RECIPE: 

2 teaspoons soy sauce,
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice,
1/4 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons of Siriracha Sauce

This recipe is for every tablespoon that your recipe calls for Worcestershire Sauce


INSTRUCTIONS:

Mix the ingredients together in a large bowl.
Take a large pan, I used 9X12 glass pan.

Make sure all the meat you want to marinade fits in the pan. In the photo, that is 3 lbs of beef.

Drizzle the marinade all over the meat in the glass pan. 

Cover the glass pan with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for as long as you can. I had it marinating for about 4 hours. NOTE: The longer the marinade, the better.

Pull out the marinated steaks and heat a large skillet on medium heat.

I only put half the meat in the pan and half the marinade in the skillet and cook it for about 20 minutes. Depending on how well done you prefer will determine the amount of time you cook the meat.

Now, half way through cooking, make sure you flip the steak so that it is evenly cooked and both sides of equal amount of time being able to cook in the marinade.

The photo is only one of the two pieces of steak I bought, but cut in half, so it was more than enough for two and could be enough for four people depending on the portion size for each person and what kind of side dishes you have with your steak.

After you are all done with that, go ahead and plate it with any other side dishes you have prepared like I did below.

BON APPETIT!
