Here’s a Gordon Ramsay‑style steak marinade you can use to infuse rich, savory flavor before cooking your steak—great for grilling, pan‑searing, or broiling. (Gordon Ramsay Eats)
🥩 Gordon Ramsay‑Style Steak Marinade
🧾 Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce (optional for extra umami)
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2–3 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
- ½ tsp freshly‑ground black pepper
- Salt (add right before cooking, not in the marinade) (Gordon Ramsay Recipes)
👩🍳 How to Marinate
- Whisk together all the marinade ingredients in a bowl. (Gordon Ramsay Recipes)
- Place your steaks (ribeye, sirloin, flank, etc.) in a resealable bag or shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the steak, making sure it’s thoroughly coated.
- Seal the bag or cover and refrigerate for at least 1–4 hours (up to ~8 hours). For best texture, avoid more than ~12 hours. (Gordon Ramsay Recipes)
- Before cooking, remove steak and let it warm a bit at room temp (~20–30 minutes). Pat dry with paper towels—this helps get a great sear.
- Season with salt right before cooking and cook to your desired doneness. (Gordon Ramsay Recipes)
🍽️ Tips for Best Results
- Don’t over‑marinate (especially with vinegar) or the steak can get mushy. (Gordon Ramsay Recipes)
- Patting the steak dry before cooking helps form a crispy, browned crust. (Gordon Ramsay Recipes)
- Finish with a knob of butter and herbs while cooking for extra richness.
