Ingredients

  • 2 lb beef steaks (such as sirloin or ribeye)
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, whisk together the 0.25 cup olive oil, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper.

  2. 2

    Place the 2 lb beef steaks in a shallow dish or zip-top bag. Pour the marinade over the steaks, turning to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.

  3. 3

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the steaks from the marinade, letting any excess drip off.

  4. 4

    Grill the steaks for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness. The steaks should have a nice char and feel firm but springy when pressed.

  5. 5

    Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

  6. 6

    Slice against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
