Easy Steak Marinade

The name really says it all – this is the Best Steak Marinade in Existence. We've been making this recipe since I started the blog. It is packed full of flavor and doesn't use any crazy ingredients. You probably have everything in the pantry right now to make it. The marinade only takes a minute to whip up and the cooked steaks taste better than any fancy restaurant!

How to Make the Best Steak Marinade in Existence

This marinade is effortless to make. Simply whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, dried basil, dried parsley, white pepper, cayenne pepper, and minced garlic. Pour the marinade over your steaks and refrigerate a few hours to overnight. When ready to cook the steaks, remove steaks from the marinade and cook until they reach your preferred temperature.

You can use this marinade on any cut of steak that you enjoy – ribeye, sirloin, NY Strip, filet, skirt steak, flank steak – anything you like.
This makes enough to marinate 6 to 8 steaks, depending on the size.
