How to Make South African Steak With Sweet Marinade Sauce

  1. Cut two 8-ounce sirloin steaks to 1-inch thickness and season generously with 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup peach chutney, ½ cup apricot jam, ¼ cup red wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder. Add the steaks to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate for at least 1 hour, or preferably up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the steak reaches your preferred internal temperature.
  4. While the steaks are grilling, simmer the remaining marinade in a small saucepan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until slightly thickened. This creates a delicious sauce to drizzle over the finished steak.
  5. Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Drizzle generously with the reduced marinade sauce and serve immediately.
