beef steak marinade

Recipe video above. This is a marinade to transform good value steaks by making them juicier, more tender and adding a hint of flavour while not overpowering the flavour of the beef. With this marinade, you won&#x27;t need a sauce for the beef, though I can never resist some garlic butter!

Beef Steak Marinade

(, economical (Note 1))

Dijon mustard

garlic ((1 large garlic clove))

tsp onion powder ((or sub with garlic powder))

soy sauce ((Note 2))

oil oil

Worcestershire sauce

tbsp balsamic vinegar

Black pepper

Mix together mustard, garlic and onion powder. Then mix in remaining ingredients.

Place beef in a ziplock bag with Marinade and marinade overnight (12 - 24 hours).

Remove from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to bring to room temperature - key for even cooking of steaks. Shake off excess marinade.

Brush BBQ Grills with oil, then heat on high heat until is really hot - you should see wisps of smoke. Or heat a heavy based skillet on high until very hot, then add oil - it will heat almost instantly.

Add steaks. For 2cm / 3/4&quot; thick steaks, cook the first side for 2 minutes, then turn and cook the other side for 2 minutes (medium rare 52°C/125°F, chart below for other doneness temps). (Note 3)

Remove from skillet onto a WARM plate, cover loosely with foil and set aside for 5 minutes.

Serve! I couldn&#x27;t resist garlic butter - see recipe in notes.

Used this for the first time the other night and once again, yum.

This is a staple in our BBQ repertoire, just need to be organised to get the marinating time in if you're tight like me and only buy cheap steaks :-)

Such a simple marinade with ingredients already in the cupboard. Steaks were the best tasting that I’ve ever had. Thanks Nagi. xx

Perfect recipe ratios for smaller quantities. Much appreciated! We are a gluten free family so use Tamari, but thankfully haven't noticed it being too strong (but we only marinate for 3-4 hours). Wonderful recipe.

Used this marinade - it works so well I'll never have to pay for another high priced steak - the bonus is those inexpensive cuts also have way more flavor

This sounds fabulous and can't wait to try it. I was thinking a nice red wine mushroom pan sauce using the drippings after removing the steak from the cast iron skillet might be awesome? Any tips on how to do that properly?

When MOTH saw the steak on the bench he naturally thought we'd be having a BBQ, no siree!

The flavour on the steak is absolutely a winner.     I have never cooked steak on the stove and I'm no spring chicken.    It's always been on the BBQ.

By cooking this way, its so moist.    Of course everything tastes better when drenched in butter and garlic.

Totally enjoying your beautiful book Nagi,  I've made at least 24 recipes from it, not to mention the weekly email recipes.

You're the best Nagi!

Worked so well. Elevated the rump steak I had beautifully. I only had 5 hours to marinate. Looking forward to trying again when I’ve got longer

Great start! I used diced fresh onion and jalapeños as well

Absolutely delicious!!!!  Marinated ribeye in it and I wanted to lick the plate.

Hi Nagi, 
In response to Anna, the meat did look weird after being in marinade, 
I cooked mine on a super hot grill plate, fast, with nice charred marks, was very tasty and juicy, Not dry at all. Perhaps it was the pan heat?
 Oh I added 1 heaped tsp of chilli jam to my marinade. 

Planning next steak night!

Thanks for the terrific recipes, Regards Cher.

Recipe is great taste like steak house 5 star restuarant style according to my family loved it. including my daughter the picky eater. Thank you

This is the first time I have ever tried making a steak and although only got to marinate it for about 6 hours or so, the end result was fantastic. I absolutely loved the marinade and so did everyone who ate it. Thank you Nagi.

Standard. Break up a bay leaf. Add some pepper. Red peppers. The go to. Drop it right in the air fryer.
