instructions
- Combine marinade ingredients in a gallon-sized Ziploc bag, then reserve half of the marinade in a separate container for serving later.
– - Add the steak to the bag and squish around to coat. Marinate for at least four hours to overnight, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the steak from the marinade.
– - Heat a heavy large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high heat. Cook the meat for about 5-7 minutes per side (or until done).
– - To serve, cut meat against the grain. Then pour remaining marinade over the top of the steak.
– - Serve with whatever other shit you want!
