Stop buying bottled steak marinade! This homemade keto version takes 5 minutes to whisk together, has no added sugar, and makes the most flavorful steak you've ever had. Works great on New York strip, ribeye, filet mignon, and even steak bites.
Add the hot water and salt to a small bowl and whisk well until the salt has mostly dissolved.
Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and whisk to combine.
Place the steak in a zip top bag or large shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top, making sure to coat the steak in the marinade.
Cover and refrigerate for 4-8 hours before removing steak from the marinade. Pat dry and cook on a hot skillet or grill.
Notes
Steak: You can use any type of steak you like. I personally love a New York strip and my husband loves filet mignon. This will work well with any cut of steak. If you’re using a thinner cut, you'll want to marinate for less time. For thicker steaks, marinate the full 8 hours.Salt: A tablespoon of salt will seem like a lot, but it’s enough to really season the steak all the way through as it sets in the marinade. If you have a thin cut of steak, such as sirloin, consider reducing the salt down to 2 teaspoons or marinate for less time.Herbs: Throw in whatever dried herbs sound good here. We often do a few dashes of Italian seasoning in place of the oregano and rosemary.Nutrition: The nutrition is based on 50% of the marinade being consumed, since so much of it gets poured out at the end.
