Grilled Steak with Sweet Garlic Mustard Marinade

This marinade is absolutely amazing.  Very simple and it brought out the natural flavor of the beef without overpowering it.  I didn't even add any A-1 to it!!  This is the best picture I was able to capture with my husbands sticky fingers grabbing at it.  A very light and sweet marinade that would be amazing with chicken as well.

Ingredients:
  • 2 steaks, cut of your choice around 1- 1 1/2 inches thick
  • 1 small granny smith apple juiced, or 1/4 cup pure apple juice
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic, zested
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:  Whisk all ingredients except salt and pepper together until smooth. Lightly pierce steaks with a fork and sprinkle with salt and pepper.   Add steaks and marinade into a large Ziploc bag and store in refrigerator for at least 2 hours.  Before grilling let steaks sit at room temperature for around 1/2 hour.  Place on heated grill and cook until lightly charred, 3-5 minutes.  Flip and continue to cook for another 3-5 minutes for medium rare.
