Balsamic Marinated Steak

Balsamic Marinated Steak, this will be your new go to Steak Marinade.  It is packed full of delicious flavors and I promise, you will love it.  Balsamic Vinegar paired with perfect a blend of seasoning to include Oregano and Basil.  Steak is perfect on the Grill, cooked in a Cast Iron skillet or broiled in the Oven.   No mater how you cook it, it matters how you marinade it!  A perfectly marinated steak can make your meal.

How to make:

It is super easy to make the marinade, which is something I love with my busy schedule.  Just mix all the marinade ingredients together in a mason jar, measuring cup or bowl.  Give it a good shake or mix and let sit while you prepare the meat.  I have found that tenderized meat also allows it to better soak in the marinade.  Stabbing it with a fork allows for the marinade to get into the steak.  These techniques no only does it help the flavor but are a great way to take out the frustrations.  

Next, put the Steak into a seal-able container, cover with the marinade and seal.  Place the seal-able container in the fridge from one hour to a day or two.  I usually let it marinade for one day but I have also forgotten to marinade and have successfully done it for 30 minutes.

I love to pair my Steak with a baked potato topped with my favorite lactose free sour cream.  Ok let's face it, sometimes its more like sour cream topped with baked potato.  Don't judge, I know I am not the only one.  

With summer coming I love to pair my steak with balsamic marinated tomato, basil and feta cheese.   In addition to potatoes and tomatoes I love to put it on top of a salad with seasonal berries.  In spring time its strawberries, summer time roasted peppers and in the fall it a slaw with broccoli cabbage and radishes.  Honestly, can't go wrong with what your pair it with.
