Ingredients
  

For the Marinade:
  • 10 cloves garlic roughly chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
For the Steaks:
  • 3 10-ounce boneless beef ribeye steaks cut 1 inch thick

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Meat thermometer
  • Grill or skillet
  • Tongs
  • Cutting board

Method
 

Cooking Instructions:
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped garlic, oregano, basil, parsley, rosemary, kosher salt, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.
  2. Place the ribeye steaks in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for more intense flavor.
  3. If you’re grilling, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a skillet, heat over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
  4. Remove the steaks from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. For grilling, place the steaks on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on your preferred doneness. If using a skillet, sear the steaks for approximately the same amount of time.
  5. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare. Remove the steaks from heat once done.
  6. Allow the steaks to rest for about 5-10 minutes. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat. Slice against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.

Notes

  • Letting the steaks rest after cooking is crucial for juicy results.
  • Using a sharp knife for slicing will give you clean cuts and enhance presentation.
  • Marinating overnight can provide a deeper flavor that’s worth the wait!
