Special Precautions and Tips:
- Do not marinate the steaks for more than 24 hours, as the acid in the lemon juice can toughen the meat.
- If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use 1 tbsp of dried rosemary and thyme instead.
- Always grill over high heat to get a good sear on the outside of the steaks.
- Let the steaks rest before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender steak.
