Ingredients for Balsamic Vinegar Steak Marinade

  • 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • Lite Olive Oil
  • Garlic Clove
  • Pepper

How to Make Balsamic Vinegar Steak Marinade

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic, brown sugar, and salt and pepper.
  2. Place 4 (approximately 1-inch thick) steaks in a resealable bag or shallow dish.
  3. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish.
  4. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes (longer for a more intense flavor).
  5. Remove steaks from marinade and discard the used marinade. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels.
  6. Preheat your grill to high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  7. Place steaks on the hot grill. Cook for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy (130-135°F for medium-rare).
  8. Let the steaks rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
