Marinade Marvels for Marinating Steaks

  • Prep Time: 15
  • Total Time: 15

Spice up summer meals with go-to grilling marinades. A marinade usually contains acidic ingredients, like lemon juice or vinegar, that break down proteins and work as liquid tenderizers. A great marinade coats, flavours and helps keep beef moist. These all-purpose and simple marinades make everything better.

Ingredients

Directions

Combine marinade ingredients in a resealable plastic bag. Reserve some marinade (before marinating) to use as basting and/or dipping sauce. OR, if you like, blend some reserved marinade into bottled vinaigrette dressing to dress greens for a steak-and-salad combo that’s a matched set. These recipes make enough marinade for a least 1 to 2 lb (500 g to 1 kg) of steak.
