Ingredients
- 2 pieces (each about 8 oz) Top sirloin steaks
- 4 cloves Fresh garlic cloves
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
- 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
Directions
Step 1
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Remove the rosemary and thyme leaves from their stems and chop them finely.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, olive oil, lemon juice, ground black pepper, red pepper flakes, and onion powder to create the marinade.
Step 3
Place the sirloin steaks in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are completely covered. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 2 hours. For best results, marinate overnight.
Step 4
Preheat your grill to high heat, about 450°F (230°C). If using a charcoal grill, prepare a two-zone fire by placing all the coals on one side of the grill.
Step 5
Remove the steaks from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels. This will help achieve a good sear.
Step 6
Place the steaks on the grill over direct heat. Grill for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting the time to your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare, 145°F (63°C) for medium.
Step 7
Once cooked to your liking, transfer the steaks to a clean plate and let them rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier steak.
Step 8
Slice the steaks against the grain and serve immediately, pairing with your choice of sides like grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
