How to Make Amazing Ginger Garlic Steak Marinade

  1. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, ginger (finely minced or grated), garlic (minced or pressed), brown sugar, and red pepper flakes.
  2. Place your steaks in a resealable bag or shallow dish.
  3. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully coated.
  4. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum tenderness.
  5. Preheat your grill or skillet to high heat.
  6. Remove steaks from marinade, reserving the marinade.
  7. Grill or sear steaks for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness.
  8. For extra flavor, baste the steaks with the reserved marinade during the last minute of cooking.
  9. Remove from heat and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain (for tougher cuts like London Broil).
  10. Serve and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
