Simple Steak Marinade for Grilling

This is just a simple, basic marinade for steaks.

2 8 - 12 oz. steaks (whatever kind you prefer)

Marinade:

1/4 cup olive oil

3 - 4 garlic cloves, chopped

1 tablespoon red onion, chopped

1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed

1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram, crushed

1 teaspoon fresh Italian parsley, chopped

1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper

Place steaks in glass baking pan. Mix marinade ingredients

and pour over steaks, making sure to allow marinade to flow

underneath steaks. Cover with plastic wrap and place in

refrigerator for about 4 hours, turning steaks once after two

hours or so. Grill to desired doneness. Salt to taste and eat.

NOTES:

1. You can adjust ingredients as needed; larger steaks may

require a bit more olive oil, and the amount of garlic desired

varies from person to person, of course. Peanut oil can be

used just as well as olive oil.

2. Steaks can be panfried instead of grilled; the recipe works

equally well for both.
