Instructions

Steak Marinade

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Add the minced garlic, beef bouillon concentrate OR 1 beef bouillon cube crumbled, ground mustard, black pepper, salt and red pepper flakes to the bowl.
  • Drizzle in the olive oil, whisking to create an emulsion.
  • Place the steak into a gallon-size resealable bag and pour the marinade into the bag and seal.
  • Use your hands to gently squeeze the bag so that the marinade coats all the steak.
  • Place into the refrigerator for a least 1 hour. The longer the steak marinates, the more flavorful and tender it will be. Steak can marinate up to 24 hours.

Notes

***Remember, the longer the steak marinates, the more flavorful and tender it will be.
While your steak is marinating, be sure to make a batch of Cowboy Butter.  This is one of our most popular recipes here on Juggling Act Mama, and it adds so much amazing flavor to your steak!
