The longer that the steak is allowed to soak up the marinade, the better. I recommend at least three hours. Better still, let it marinate overnight for a steak that is bursting with flavor. Serve it alongside some grilled vegetables and possibly some sliced avocado for a delicious steak fajita (minus the tortilla). You don’t need to be eating Paleo to appreciate this recipe. This one is for all steak-lovers out there.
I prefer my steak grilled. I know that sometimes in the winter the grill is put away, but there is still the counter-top George Foreman grill or grill pan. These are both great options for people (such as myself) in apartments without any outdoor space to call our own. Or there are the crazy people such as my lovely stepmother who sneak out onto the deck in below-freezing temperatures to fire up the grill to make some chicken or steak. For all those crazy people and apartment-dwellers, or those waiting for summer, this is a delicious recipe for steak marinade that will leave you with a steak that is juicy, tender, and infused with rich balsamic flavors.
