How to Make Greek Grilled Ribeye Steaks

In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon dried oregano.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil and 1/2 cup dry red wine (like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot). Pour this mixture over the spice blend and whisk to combine.
Rub the marinade generously onto both sides of the steaks. Place the marinated steaks in a shallow dish, ensuring they are in a single layer. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight for maximum flavor).
While the steaks marinate, prepare the basting sauce: Whisk together 3 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (or the zest of 1 lemon).
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. For charcoal grills, ensure hot coals are evenly distributed.
Place steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for approximately 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness, basting with the lemon-oil mixture a couple of times during cooking. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches your desired level (130-135°F for medium-rare).
Remove steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh lemon wedges and enjoy!
