CAN I USE THIS MARINADE ON OTHER CUTS OF STEAK?

Absolutely!

This versatile marinade brings out the best in various cuts, whether you’re working with a luxurious tomahawk steak, a classic new york strip, or even a simple filet mignon.

I’m also a fan of the simple sirloin steak.

I know the thinner steak tends to dry out easier, but this marinade can really help with that.

Sometimes delicious steaks are just about practice!

HOW LONG TO MARINATE?

Ideally, let your steaks marinate overnight in the refrigerator to soak up all those wonderful flavors.

A minimum of a few hours will still yield delicious results.

Longer is always better, in my opinion, especially depending on the thickness of the cut.

ANY ADDITIONS?

Whether in the marinade or just on top of the steak, these additions can work wonders.

• Sprinkle red pepper flakes over the tender steak for a spicy kick.
• Add red onions to the cilantro lime marinade for a sharp, sweet crunch.
• Drizzle fresh lime juice on the ribeye steaks after grilling for extra zesty lime flavor.
• Toss in green onions as a garnish for a fresh, mild bite on this cut of meat.
• Mix chili powder into the marinade for a smoky bold flavor boost.
• Serve with black beans on the side for a Cinco de Mayo vibe.
• Top with cilantro pesto for a vibrant fresh flavor in this cilantro lime flank steak twist.
• Include bell peppers grilled alongside for colorful fajita marinade flair.
• Add lime zest to the marinade for a stronger citrus juice punch.

ANY SUBSTITUTIONS?

If you’re in search of the perfect ribeye steak, these subs can be your friend.

• Use soy sauce instead of red wine vinegar in the cilantro lime marinade for an umami twist.
• Swap olive oil with avocado oil for a smoother flavor of this marinade.
• Replace ribeye steaks with flank steak for a leaner cut of meat in this flank steak tacos style.
• Use lemon juice instead of lime juice for a different citrus juice note.
• Substitute light brown sugar with honey for a natural sweetness in the marinade.
• Swap garlic cloves with garlic powder for a quicker bold flavor in this easy recipe.
