Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds of steak (ribeye, striploin, or tenderloin)
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Directions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
- Place the steak in a shallow dish and pour the honey mustard marinade over it. Make sure the steak is evenly coated with the marinade. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for a more intense flavor.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and discard the excess marinade.
- Grill the steak for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is reached. For medium-rare, the internal temperature should be around 135°F (57°C).
- Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a juicy steak.
- Slice the steak against the grain and serve immediately.
- Optional: You can drizzle some extra honey mustard sauce over the sliced steak for an added burst of flavor.
