So we were in Connecticut at a steak house and I decided to have a teriyaki sirloin
Typically I like my steak pretty simple with no bells or whistles but I must say I loved the flavor from the teriyaki!
So I decided to make some at home!
Here I have 4 beef sirloin steaks
They have a wonderful beefy flavor on their own, but they will really do well with a great marinade
So let’s talk about that
We will need 1 cup of Teriyaki sauce, 1/4 cup of Soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of honey and 1 clove of grated garlic
Place all the ingredients into a bowl and whisk, until combined
Place the steaks in a gallon zip lock bag
I stand the bag up in a mixing bowl to avoid it flopping around when you add the marinade
Pour the marinade in, over the steaks, push the bag down to release any excess air, seal and move the marinade and steaks around to coat evenly
I lay the bag in a flat pan so the steak really just sits in all that good flavor
Marinate for a minimum of 1-2 hours though I think overnight would be the best (in fact I imagine that’s how the restaurant we visited developed so much flavor)
Flip the bag once in a while to maximize the flavor and evenly coat the beef
I marinating for 1-2 hours flip the bag every 20 minutes or so
When the steak has marinated enough, strain the liquid into a sauce pot
Let the steaks come to room temperature
Season the beef with some kosher salt and ground black pepper
Bring the marinade to a boil, then simmer and reduce by half (allow to cook down slowly)
Well, you can grill these outside, however, due to the weather I’m forced to grill these inside
Add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to a cast iron grill pan
I’m going to let this heat up until smoking, I want to get some grill marks and grill flavor
Place your steaks in the pan and season the other side with kosher salt and ground black pepper
While these cook, baste them with the reduced marinade
Sear for about 4 minutes, then turn them cross wise (do not flip yet)
Baste
Cook another 2 minutes, then flip
Baste some more!
Sear this side another 2-3 minutes then turn cross wise and cook another minute or 2 more until the steaks are medium at around 135 F
Baste again!
Remove from the pan and let rest for 10 minutes before serving
We served these steaks over a bed of Citrus Roasted Asparagus!
Enjoy!!!
Simply Sundays! ~ Teriyaki Sirloin Steak
Ingredients
4 boneless sirloin steaks
1 cup of Teriyaki sauce
1/4 cup of Soy sauce
1 tablespoon of brown sugar
1 tablespoon of honey
1 garlic clove minced
kosher salt
ground black pepper
Directions
Place 1 cup of Teriyaki sauce, 1/4 cup of Soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of honey and 1 clove of grated garlic into a mixing bowl and whisk until well combined
Place the steaks in a zip lock bag. Pour in your marinade. Force all the air out of the bag and seal. Move the marinade and steaks around to coat evenly, then lay the bag in a flat pan so the steak really just sits in all that good flavor
Marinade this overnight, which is best, flipping the bag at least twice, or marinate at least 1-2 hours. When marinating the same day I like to flip the bag every 20 minutes or so to maximize penetration, and evenly coat
When the steak has marinated enough, strain the liquid into a sauce pot and let the steaks come to room temperature. Season the beef with some kosher salt and ground black pepper
Bring the marinade to a boil, then simmer and reduce by half (allow to cook down slowly). Add 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to a cast iron grill pan and heat up until smoking. Place the steaks in the pan and season the other side with kosher salt and ground black pepper
While the steaks cook, baste them with the reduced marinade. Sear for about 4 minutes, then turn them cross wise (do not flip yet). Baste some more. Cook another 2 minutes, then flip. Baste again. Sear this new side another 2-3 minutes then turn cross wise and cook another minute or 2 more until the steaks are medium at around 135 F. Baste once more then remove from the pan and let rest for 10 minutes before serving
