Serves: 4 Hands-On Time: 10 minutes Total Time: 25 minutes (plus marinating time)
INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 lb boneless sirloin steak, trimmed of fat

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. To a large resealable bag, add steak and 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce. Seal bag and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 24 hours, turning occasionally.
