Special Precautions and Tips:
- Make sure to marinate the steaks for at least 2 hours, but no longer than overnight. This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the meat.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook these steaks in a cast-iron skillet over high heat.
- Let the steaks rest before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier steak.
