Instructions
Creating an incredible Grilled Tuscan Steak is quite simple if you follow these straightforward steps:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir until thoroughly mixed.
2. Marinate the Steak: Place the steak in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it’s well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
4. Remove the Steak from Marinade: Take the steak out of the marinade, allowing any excess liquid to drip off. Discard the used marinade.
5. Grill the Steak: Place the steak on the hot grill. Cook for about 4–6 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on your desired doneness.
6. Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. Aim for 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium, and 150°F (66°C) for well-done.
7. Rest the Steak: Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier steak.
8. Slice and Serve: After resting, slice the steak against the grain for maximum tenderness. Serve immediately, garnished with additional fresh rosemary if desired.
By following these easy steps, you will create a stunning and flavorful dish that showcases the best of Italian cooking!
