Sirloin Steak with Red Wine Marinade

Arizona Vanilla pays a tribute to the fallen and our gratitude for their sacrifice.

Sirloin Steak with Red Wine Marinade

4 sirloin steaks
½ cup red wine
2 tbs red wine vinegar
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tbs peppercorns
1 tbs fennel seeds
1 tbs coriander seeds
2 bay leaves
½ tsp dry rosemary
1/3 cup A1 sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt to taste

Combine seeds in a ziplock bag and crack them. Transfer them to a small pan at medium heat for about 3 minutes until they are aromatic.

Mix red wine, vinegar, and A1 sauce. Whisk in the olive oil slowly to emulsify and add the seeds and garlic.

Season the steaks and add the marinade. Chill for about 4 hours and grill 3 minutes per side.

Enjoy!
