Equipment
- Medium sized bowl
- sharp knife
Ingredients
- 3 ounces pineapple juice infusing a tropical and slightly sweet flavor, contributing to a tenderizing effect on the meat and adding a delightful hint of fruitiness.
- 1 Ribeye Steak providing a tender and juicy cut of beef, known for its marbling and rich flavor, perfect for grilling or searing to perfection.
- 3 ounces apple cider vinegar adding tanginess and a subtle fruity note, enhancing the overall acidity and brightness of the dish.
- 7/8 cup soy sauce providing a savory and umami-rich base, adding depth and flavor to the marinade or sauce.
- 1 1/2 cups sugar offering a sweet and caramelized taste, balancing the saltiness of the soy sauce and creating a delightful glaze or marinade.
- 3/4 to 1 teaspoon granulated garlic delivering a pungent and aromatic essence, enhancing the overall savory profile of the dish.
- 3/4 to 1 teaspoon ginger offering a warm and slightly tangy taste, adding a pleasant spiciness and depth to the flavors.
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sugar, apple cider vinegar, pineapple juice, garlic, and ginger. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Place the ribeye steak in a shallow dish or zip-top bag that is large enough to hold both steaks. Pour the marinade over the steak and work it in with your hands so that all sides of the steak are evenly coated.
- Cover the dish or bag and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight if desired. The longer you marinate, the more flavorful the steak will be.
- When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the steak on a baking sheet and pour any remaining marinade over the top of it. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until desired doneness is reached.
- Let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a spicier version, add some chili flakes or hot sauce to the marinade.
- If you're short on time, you can reduce the marinating time to 1 hour. The steak won't be as flavorful, but it will still be delicious!
- To make this dish healthier, substitute vegetable broth or water for soy sauce.
- To make this dish gluten-free, use a gluten-free soy sauce or tamari.
- For extra flavor, add some fresh herbs such as thyme or rosemary to the marinade.
- For an extra kick, add some freshly grated ginger to the marinade.
