Instructions

How to Make Tender Juicy Steak Tips

  • In a medium-sized bowl, mix together olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, and black pepper. Let this flavorful blend sit while you prep the steak.
  • Trim excess fat from the steak and slice it into uniform bite-sized pieces.
  • Coat the steak pieces in the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-covered. Let it soak for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F.
  • Place the marinated steak on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Remove the steak tips from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
  • Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped rosemary or thyme.

Notes

Store leftover steak tips in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Freeze for longer storage for up to 3 months. Reheat gently to retain tenderness.
