- Place your steaks—ribeye, sirloin, or flank—in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they’re completely coated.
- Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.

This marinade creates a perfect balance of savory, tangy, and herby notes. The soy and Worcestershire deliver deep umami flavor, while lemon juice adds brightness and helps tenderize the beef. Olive oil and herbs tie everything together, giving your steak that irresistible grilled aroma and restaurant-quality finish.
