How to Make Basil Marinated Steak

  1. In a large non-metal bowl or resealable food-grade plastic bag, combine all marinade ingredients (see below).
  2. Whisk the marinade thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
  3. Add the steak to the marinade, ensuring it's fully coated on all sides.
  4. Cover the bowl or seal the bag tightly.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the steak to fully marinate.
  6. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (approximately 375-400°F). Clean the grates thoroughly.
  7. Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the marinade.
  8. Place the steak on the preheated grill grates.
  9. Grill for 10-15 minutes for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness, turning once or twice. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches your desired internal temperature (130-135°F for medium-rare, 140-145°F for medium).
  10. Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  11. Once rested, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Basil Marinated Steak!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
