For a flavorful and tender steak, here’s a recipe for what’s often referred to as the “Best Steak Marinade In Existence.” It combines a variety of ingredients to enhance the taste and tenderness of the steak.

Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup soy sauce
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder
• 3 tablespoons dried basil
• 1 1/2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
• 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (optional)
• 1 teaspoon dried minced garlic (optional)

Instructions:

1. Combine Ingredients:
   • In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, basil, parsley, white pepper, hot pepper sauce, and dried minced garlic (if using).
2. Marinate Steak:
   • Place your steak (ribeye, sirloin, or your preferred cut) in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.
3. Pour Marinade:
   • Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it’s fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best flavor.
4. Flip and Rotate:
   • If possible, flip the steak and rotate it halfway through the marinating time to ensure even coverage.
5. Preheat Grill or Pan:
   • Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.
6. Remove Steak from Marinade:

1. Remove the steak from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off.
2. Cook Steak:
   • Grill the steak to your desired doneness, typically 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on thickness.
3. Rest:
   • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat juicy and flavorful.
4. Slice and Serve:
   • Slice the steak against the grain and serve.

This marinade works well for various cuts of steak and adds a rich, savory flavor. Adjust the marinating time based on the thickness of your steak and your personal preference. Enjoy your delicious and marinated steak!
