Zesty Marinated Rib Eye Steak
Ingredients
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons Montreal-style steak seasoning
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons lime juice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 1/2 pounds beef rib-eye steaks
Instructions
1
Heat cumin seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until they transform into a rich, dark brown color and emit a fragrant toasted aroma, approximately 1 minute.
2
Immediately transfer the toasted cumin seeds to a bowl to halt their cooking process, thereby preserving their flavor and aroma.
3
Combine the toasted cumin seeds with orange juice, vegetable oil, steak seasoning, lime juice, and oregano in the bowl.
4
Place steaks into a large resealable plastic bag, then pour the orange juice marinade inside. Remove any air from the bag and seal it securely, ensuring the steaks are evenly coated with the marinade.
5
Refrigerate the bagged steaks for at least 30 minutes, or longer if desired to allow the flavors to meld together.
6
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly brush the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking. \nRemove the steaks from their marinade and gently shake off any excess, discarding the remaining marinade.
7
Grill the steaks on the preheated grill for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until they are seared on the outside and still slightly pink in the center.
8
To ensure the steaks have reached a safe internal temperature, insert an instant-read meat thermometer into the center of the thickest steak and check that it reads 145 degrees F (65 degrees C).
9
Once cooked, let the steaks rest for 3 minutes before slicing and serving.
