🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- First things first, let’s prep that steak! Pat it dry with paper towels – this helps get a nice sear. Season generously with salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Remember, don't be shy with the seasoning!
- Now for the marinade (optional, but highly recommended!). In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and a touch of brown sugar. Toss the steak in the marinade, ensuring it's fully coated. Pop it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or even better, overnight!
- While the steak marinates (or if you skipped the marinade), it’s time for those brussels sprouts. Trim the ends and cut any large sprouts in half. In a bowl, toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, add the Brussels sprouts to the grill, spreading them out in a single layer. Grill for about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they're tender and slightly charred. Trust me, the char is essential!
- Now for the star of the show! Place the steak on the preheated grill. Grill for about 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Again, use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. That's crucial.
- Once the steak reaches your desired internal temperature, remove it from the grill. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Finally, plate the grilled steak and Brussels sprouts. You can garnish with fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme if desired. If you're feeling extra fancy, drizzle a little balsamic glaze over everything for an extra layer of deliciousness.
📝 Notes
- For a richer flavor, use high-quality olive oil and soy sauce. Feel free to add more or less of any spice to adjust the taste to your preferences. Don't overcrowd the grill when cooking the Brussels sprouts for even cooking.
