Marinated Steak with Soy Sauce, Garlic, and Honey

A juicy steak is quite simple to prepare if you marinate it for several hours in a fragrant mixture of soy sauce, garlic, honey, wine vinegar, and olive oil. The steak turns out to be very juicy, tender, and aromatic, and the degree of roasting can be adjusted independently.

Instructions

1. Score the beef by making shallow cuts 2-3 mm deep across the surface to help the marinade penetrate. Mince the garlic finely.
2. In a deep bowl, combine the wine vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and olive oil to make the marinade.
3. Stir the minced garlic into the marinade. Place the beef in the marinade, cover with cling film, and refrigerate for 2 to 8 hours.
4. Remove the beef from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. Pick off any garlic pieces stuck to the meat (they will burn during cooking). Season both sides with salt and pepper.
5. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush it with olive oil. Place the beef in the pan and cook the first side for 3 minutes.
6. Flip the beef and cook the other side for 3 minutes. For rarer steak, reduce cooking time to 2 minutes per side.
7. Transfer the steak to a plate and let it rest for 7 to 8 minutes before cutting. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, keeping it moist and tender.
