Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds Beef sirloin
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
  • 3 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, black pepper, onion powder, red pepper flakes, and lemon juice. Mix well to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the beef sirloin on a cutting board and trim any excess fat.

Step 3

Slice the beef sirloin against the grain into 1/4-inch thick strips for optimal tenderness.

Step 4

Transfer the beef strips to the bowl of marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid.

Step 5

Refrigerate the beef for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the meat.

Step 6

When ready to cook, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Remove the beef from the marinade, letting any excess drip off.

Step 8

Grill the beef strips for about 3-5 minutes per side until cooked through to your preferred level of doneness.

Step 9

Remove the beef from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the low sodium marinated beef with your favorite sides, such as a fresh salad or steamed vegetables.
