Method
 

  1. Prepare the Marinade
    In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, and Worcestershire sauce. Whisk until fully blended.
  2. Marinate the Steak
    Place your steak in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
  3. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat the Grill or Skillet
    Heat your grill or skillet to medium-high. Lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook the Steak
    Remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry with a paper towel.
  6. Cook the steak for 4–6 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer if needed.
  7. Rest and Serve
    Let the steak rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
  8. Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy!
