Ingredients
Scale
Steak and Marinade
- 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks (about 8 oz each)
- 3 tablespoons vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 3 fresh garlic cloves, crushed
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary, chopped
- Salt, to taste
- Cracked black pepper, to taste
Additional Ingredients
- 4 slices smoky turkey bacon
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, combine vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), olive oil, apple cider vinegar, crushed garlic, and chopped rosemary. Whisk the ingredients together until fully blended into a flavorful marinade.
- Marinate the Steak: Place your chosen steak cuts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow all the flavors to permeate the meat deeply.
- Cook the Smoky Turkey Bacon: While the steak marinates, cook the smoky turkey bacon in a pan over medium heat until crisped to your liking. Set aside and keep warm for later use as a topping or side.
- Sear the Steak: Heat a grill pan or heavy skillet on high heat and sear the steak for 3-4 minutes per side, or until you reach your preferred doneness. Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing to keep it juicy.
- Prepare the Sauce: Take the remaining marinade and simmer it gently with a small amount of natural gelling agent to thicken into a velvety sauce that complements the steak.
- Assemble the Dish: Slice the rested steak and arrange it on a platter, drizzle the savory sauce on top, and garnish with the crispy smoky turkey bacon for that perfect finishing touch.
Notes
- Let your steak come to room temperature before cooking for even heat distribution.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure perfect doneness by checking internal temperature at the thickest part.
- Allow the steak to rest after cooking so juices redistribute, keeping it tender.
- Sear the steak on very high heat for a beautiful crust and flavor lock.
- Warm the sauce gently and serve immediately for the best taste experience.
