Honey Balsamic Steak

  • Unique marinade that mixes sweet and savory.
  • Quick to prepare and grill, ready in under 30 minutes!
  • Versatile dish that fits various dietary needs.

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless ribeye steaks
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh thyme or rosemary (optional, for garnish)

How to Make

Begin by preparing the marinade for your Honey Balsamic Steak. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well combined. Place the ribeye steaks in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish, then pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully coated. Zip the bag or cover the dish and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes, but up to 2 hours for more flavor. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Grill the steaks for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side for medium rare, depending on thickness. Once done, remove from the grill and let rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with any leftover marinade and garnish with fresh thyme or rosemary before serving.

Tips

  • For extra tenderness, let the steaks come to room temperature before grilling.
  • Feel free to adjust honey and balsamic vinegar according to your sweetness preference.

Make-Ahead

You can easily make the marinade in advance and marinate the steaks for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor, making it a speedy dinner option when time is tight.

Storing

Leftover grilled steaks can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Freezing

If you want to store the steaks for a longer period, you can freeze them in a freezer-safe bag with the marinade. They can last in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Reheating

To reheat, allow the steaks to thaw overnight in the fridge, then reheat in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through. Avoid microwaving to preserve texture.

Serving Suggestions

This Honey Balsamic Steak pairs wonderfully with roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or creamy mashed potatoes. For a complete meal, serve alongside a glass of red wine!
